Fireball watch November 14th! Asteroid to whiz by Earth and Moon

There are 4 known Near Earth Objects coming closer than 5 Lunar Distance (LD) over next 12 months:

- OBJECT  -- YYYY-MMM-DD - UTC -- LD/AU
2012 DA14 -- 2013-Feb-15 19:25 -- 0.09/0.00023
2012 VJ38 -- 2012-Nov-14 01:51 -- 0.6/0.0015	 
2010 GM23 -- 2013-Apr-13 23:00 -- 3.9/0.0099
2007 EO88 -- 2013-Mar-18 20:50 -- 4.4/0.0114

2012 VJ38 is a small 6 to 12 meter asteroid discovered yesterday on November 12, 2012. It will make it's closest approach:

2012-Nov-14 01:51 -- Earth -- 0.0015 AU
2012-Nov-14 09:40 -- Moon --- 0.0036 AU

After 36 observations since yesterday, orbit uncertainty is a 6 with 0 being good, and 9 being highly uncertain.

Being so new, this NEO is not yet on the list at [link to spaceweather.com]

If there is debris or other objects accompanying it perhaps we will see some meteors blaze through the atmosphere.

By the way, I think the closer approach of asteroid 2012 DA14 on February 15, 2013 is very significant... but we shall see.
