Asteroids in our back yard!
Next up in our unofficial “near-Earth outer space” day: two Asteroids will pass near the earth today! One already has (at ~2:51 this morning, PDT) and one will in a few hours (~2:12 PM PDT). This is not actually that rare, but it’s still kind of fun to think of what’s out there.
I do love a good trajectory diagram. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
