Don't know much about this but this is 1/10 of the distance between the moon and the earth... that is really close. It is only 26 meter in diameter but still. [/quote] That is for 2012 [b]KP24 [/b]today, not 2012 [b]KT42 [/b]tomorrow (which is not on SpaceWeather.com yet) This one is small, 5 to 10 meters [/quote] why dont you edit the title of this post, i think that we are thinking this is KP24 from last week threads. [/quote] Yes. Good point. Done. THANKS [/quote]
