ASTEROID PARALLAX: "On November 9th, asteroid 2005 YU55 passed so close to Earth that viewers at separate locations saw the interloper appear in slightly different spots against the background star field," says amateur astronomer Mike Harms of San Francisco. To illustrate this parallax effect, he combined his own observations with those of Dennis di Cicco across the country in Boston:​

​

At the time of the flyby, the 400m-wide space rock was only 324,600 kilometers away, about 85% the distance from Earth to the Moon. This allowed amateur and professional astronomers alike to study the asteroid in unprecedented detail.​

In Australia, where the Boston vs. Brisbane parallax effect was even greater, Dennis Simmons video-recorded the flyby: "It was quite sobering to be able to view the almost full Moon some 20 degrees away, knowing that this lump of rock was now nearer to me than our Moon," he says. "I was astonished at how bright the NEO appeared, having read that results from the Arecibo radar indicated it to be a very dark, nearly spherical object some 400 meters in diameter."​

LEONID METEOR SHOWER: Earth is passing through the debris field of Comet Tempel-Tuttle, parent of the annual Leonid meteor shower. Barring a direct hit by a filament of dust, which forecasters consider unlikely, this year's shower should be mild. Peak rates of 10 to 20 meteors per hour are expected on Nov. 17th and 18th.

NASA just discovered Asteroid 2011 WP4 on Nov 18, 2011 (Close Approach is Nov 24, 2011). Folks, NASA just discovered it 2 days ago, and they've labeled this asteroid as a condition code 8 (which means a high uncertainty of its orbit). Plus, the JPL site doesn't show the physical size of this asteroid. Are they purposely holding back the size of this object from the public? Well, I sure hope not.

NASA พึ่งจะค้นพบอุกาบาต 2011 WP4 ในวันที่ 18 พฤศจิกายน 2011 (ใกล้โลกที่สุดคือ 24 ธันวาคม 2011) นาซ่าแค่จะเจอเจ้านี่ 2 วันที่ผ่านมา เค้าติดชื่อมันว่าอุกาบาตกับเงื่อนไข CODE 8 (นั่นหมายถึง ไม่รู้วงโคจรที่แน่นอนเลย) บวกกับ JPL เวบไซท์ไม่ได้แสดงถึงขนาดที่แท้จริงของอุกาบาตนี้เลย แล้วพวกเค้าจะไปบอกขนาดที่แท้จริงกับสาธารณะเหร๋อ? อือ ชั้นไม่ได้คาดหวังเลย

2005 YU55 resembles a collection of rocks hurtling through space

<small>November 18, 2011 </small> Enlarge
This image of the minor planet 2005 YU55 at a wavelength of 70 micron was reconstructed from more than 3500 individual exposures with the Herschel space observatory. The shape of the image shows the point spread function of the telescope, the asteroid itself is too small to be resolved with Herschel. Credit: MPI for Extraterrestrial Physics/ESAC


(PhysOrg.com) -- It is the closest, fastest and smallest object so far seen by Herschel. In fact, such observations were not even foreseen due to technical constraints. The asteroid 2005 YU55 is moving on the sky with a speed exceeding by far Herschel's possibilities to track it. But with the help of a little trick scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics and at the European Space Astronomy Center in Spain were able to use Herschel to catch a glimpse of this asteroid shortly after it had crossed the Moon's orbit. As it turned out, 2005 YU55 is somewhat smaller than had been assumed and probably might be a loose assembly of boulders, pebbles and dust.

way, centering the more than 3500 individual images from the two four-minute observing runs on the true object position. The final images show 2005 YU55 perfectly focused and centred in all three frequency channels.

This was only possible because the PACS instrument used for these infrared observations was designed and built at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, and the scientists therefore have precise knowledge of the instrument and its capabilities. A careful analysis of the data in each of the three infrared filters (at 70, 100 and 160 microns) resulted in an estimate for several asteroid parameters. Although 2005 YU55 is the smallest object seen by Herschel so far, it is one of the largest bodies with very close Earth-encounters. Surprisingly, however, the new measurements indicate that is has to be smaller than previously thought. Depending on its orientation the scientists estimate about 310 m for the object's diameter (retrograde) or about 340 m (prograde). In any case the minor planet has to be smaller than the 400 m diameter derived from Nasa radar observations in 2010.
From the infrared observations the scientists also determined the albedo (6%) – 2005 YU55 is very dark and reflects only 6% of the sunlight. The rest is absorbed and converted to infrared radiation. This indicates a dark, carbonaceous surface consistent with a previous classification as C-type object. About 75% of all minor planets belong to this class.

The thermal properties seem to be very similar to the ones found for Itokawa, a small body visited by the Japanese mission Hayabusa, which turned out to be a rubble pile. Our findings indicate that 2005 YU55 might also be a loose assembly of boulders, pebbles and dust and not a single monolithic rock in space.
The Herschel observations also help to improve the orbit calculations of 2005 YU5. The minor planet does not pose a danger for Earth, at least within the next few decades, for which we can predict its orbit with high accuracy. In 2029 this little asteroid will have a close encounter with Venus (at 340 000 km), afterwards the orbit is not perfectly predictable and it is unlikely that 2005 YU55 will cross the Moon's orbit again in 2041.
In case of 2005 YU55 we can rest assured that we are safe for the next few decades. And, instead of working out deflection concepts, we can concentrate on the more scientific aspects of characterizing this exotic and very interesting minor body.
