Hola,

 

Hoy este asteroide nos pasó muy cerca a 19200 km, 0,05 distancia lunar, velocidad  18,43 km/s, tamaño entre 2 y 4 metros. Es el séptimo  que pasa entre la Tierra y la Luna desde el 9 de enero.

 

Pego  el artículo original que verifiqué en NASA NEO.

 

Saludos!

A newly discovered asteroid named 2017 EA flew past Earth at an extremely close distance of 0.05 LD (19 200 km / 11 930 miles) from the surface of our planet at 14:05 UTC on March 2, 2017. This is the 7th known asteroid to flyby Earth within 1 lunar distance since January 9, 2017.

2017 EA has an estimated diameter between 2 and 4.4 m (6.5 to 14.4 feet) and belongs to the Apollo group of asteroids. It was first observed at Catalina Sky Survey just a couple of hours before its close approach.

It flew past Earth at 14:05 UTC today at a speed (relative to the Earth) of 18.43 km/s.

Entre 2 y 4 metros?...

Nos perdimos una hermosa estrella fugaz...
