Near earth Asteroid 2012 KP24 0.1 LD!

yeah, never seen this bullshit before:

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Closest objects over next year, this one is number 2: [link to neo.jpl.nasa.gov]

And 275 NEO are known to approach closer than 5 LD in the future and this one is number 4 out 275 for nominal distance and very comparable to 2012 DA14 which got MSM attention [link to neo.jpl.nasa.gov]

It has the same name as the aussie head lice treatment...

Coincidence? I think not!

This object is too new for NASA to post past Close Approach history, so I ran JPL orbit program backward to spot last close approach which was the week of May 31, 1983. That same week one of the 2 biggest quakes in years hit. Probably means nothing though...

Here's a few questions!

since this rock is predicted to pass about 38,000 km from Earth, is that distance from the center point or mean sea level?

What is the orbit distance of geosynchronous satellites?

Will this rock take any of them out as it passes?

honshu

despite the naaaaaaay sayers...i'll b a watchin.

could prove interesting, and we are in the middle of some alignments

Thread: AMAZING new discovery... earthquakes influenced by asteroids!

It has the same name as the aussie head lice treatment...

are you saying that we are the lice of the world?

26m of what?

Should impact the Kardashian Household, thatll make headlines.

..theres lots of "suprise" asteroids out there lately..
Mustve been funny when they sent WISE up..like turning on a light and suddenly seeing all the asteroids saying "suprise"
your surrounded

hmm

we saw something flying around today on the scopes

we tracked it

I wonder if this is what we saw

in 29 may, this object will come 223 094 miles from the earth (0.0024 AU)

Nothing to worry about I guess.. Not close enough :p

Last time you ran JPL orbit program backward your "calculation/prediction" was way off: you: orbit some days - JPL: orbit some years.

Stop the BS of using the orbit diagram for your "predictions".
Even with a condition code of "0" it's accurate for only a short time.
