oh and bump ;-)

Asteroid distance from the Earth's surface: 208083 km

sorry guys, just waking up to this..

Was just playing around on that tracking site and to the left of the page, there was a floating box, H+,M+,S+; seemed like a predictive tool, in playing with H+, I think it looked like it was hitting Antarctica???or coming within a few tousand miles...?? idk, not fully awake yet, anyone see that little floating box?? I got freaked and re-freshed, now it's not there!

its going to come from the south and head over west australia and then towards Indonesia, is when going to be at closest.

So from Thailand I reckon south west, us the website linked and it will show your long/lat and mark you and can see from that

I didn't check it, I thought it was an ad

201100km

That's great, thank you!! See you on the other side ;)

is it gone , for you, too? It was changing the diagrams, and the main banner that lists the distance from earth, etc.. I think it was a predictive tool..??!!

Will it be visible to the naked eye as it passes by?

looked something like this: (I see the ad now)

H+,M+,S+
H-.M-,S-

It was a grey box...

No unless the predictions are wrong.
Not from the US anyway.

It will be very small from Australia/Indonesia

Do you think this is what Anonymous was trying to tell us when they hacked the system and put the game Asteroids on the site?

Is this info that the government is trying to hide to keep from wide spread panic?

Good job OP. Now I'll be up all night wondering if I should start myself.

Bonza links.

on the satflare site there is a link to predict best opportunity to observe the asteroid from your location conveniently called

Also just to note from first looking at the satflare site the Asteroid has slowed from 6.3 to 6.2 km/s make of that what you will. I think the 4th/5th post has a quote from my original post

If it is, observe direction of travel, then run in the opposite direction.

5*

Since this thing is supposed to be at it's closest as it passes over Indonesia, what are the odds of it waking up the sleeping giant Toba?



Might be some interesting times ahead...
