Шаблон:Mp is an Apollo near-Earth asteroid that was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey in Arizona on 11 October 2007. Imaging radar has estimated that it is Шаблон:Convert in diameter.[1] The asteroid passed 554,209 kilometer (344,370 mile or 1.4-lunar distance)[2] from Earth on 29 January 2008 at 08:33 UTC. (At the time of the passage it was believed the closest for any known potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) of this size before 2027,[3] but in 2010 Шаблон:Mpl was measured to be 400 meters in diameter.) At closest approach the asteroid had an apparent magnitude of 10.3 and was about 50 times fainter than the naked eye can see. It required about a Шаблон:Convert telescope to be seen.[1]

Impact risk assessment

From the date of discovery of asteroid Шаблон:Mp on 11 October 2007, a total of 316 observations of it had been made by 31 January 2008, spanning 112 days.[4] Now the asteroid has an observation arc of about 3 years and the trajectory is well defined.[4] It was removed from the Sentry Risk Table on 4 December 2007 at 14:05 UTC.[5]

2008 passage

Goldstone Observatory carried out radar observations on January 23 and 24 January 2008. As of then, the orbit of the asteroid was known with such a high precision that scientists were able to calculate close approaches from the year 67 AD to 2141 AD.[6] On 29 January 2008 at 08:33 UTC, Шаблон:Mp passed by the earth at a nominal distance of Шаблон:Convert with a relative speed of 9.248 km/s.[7]

Observations from Arecibo Observatory were taken on 1–4 February.[1] It is a contact binary asteroid.[8]
