ExoPoliChick User ID: 12909685 Canada 10/11/2012 08:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't think the size of this particular asteroid that is at issue....it is the fact that there are several of them lately.....and a great number of them are very late discoveries. We are obviously in some sort of debris field. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Resident Led Zeppelin Expert (ask me anything!) Traveler of both time and space Fuck Trudeau. mRNA-Free and Proud.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 25109150 United States 10/11/2012 09:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The space rock, called asteroid 2012 TC4, is about 56 feet wide (17 meters) and will come within 59,000 miles (95,000 kilometers) of Earth at its closest point when it zips harmlessly by on Friday. That's about one-fourth the distance to the moon. Quoting: sonic doom But you don't have to wait to see live views of the interloping space rock: There are two live webcasts of the asteroid today (Oct. 11). The Virtual Telescope Project and Slooh Space Camera, two groups that offer live telescope views of space via the Internet, will be providing the asteroid imagery. The Virtual Telescope Project in Italy run by astrophysicist Gianluca Masi will provide a live telescope view of asteroid 2014 TC4 starting at 3:30 p.m. EDt.
