asteroid shoot right past Earth

Last weekend once again had the earth luck. On Friday, astronomers discovered an asteroid that suddenly passed a few hours later narrowly earth . So close that he passed the earth far below the orbit of the height of satellites .

The asteroid was discovered by the Russians in an observatory near Lake Baikal. About nine hours after the discovery he flew at an altitude of 11,300 kilometers along the earth . Significantly lower than the orbit of satellites (about 36,000 kilometers ) .

According to Vladimir Lipunov of the University of Moscow this asteroid was about 15 feet in size . Approximately similar to the meteorite that exploded in February this year above the Russian Chelnyabinsk and caused 1500 injuries . While at the same time an asteroid ( DA14 ) narrowly shot past the earth.

According to official figures , the chance that an asteroid will hit the earth on a 250,000 . However , according to Anatoly Perminov , head of Russian Space Agency , the odds still somewhat greater than " just maybe " . That's one of the reasons that the Russians have started researching ways to the orbits of asteroids to bend .

One of the major problems facing the world now have to deal with one hand, the increase of pieces of space debris coming our way as we wrote yesterday in an article and also that only a small proportion of these asteroids are discovered .

So we wrote in an article last July :

" Of all afstormende our space rocks that a potential threat to the earth forms , is only 10 percent by NASA found" .

In addition, one remains stubbornly clinging to old statistical data with the message that all will fall because the chance of a ... etc. is .

The truth is that most of these objects simply not detected or too late . The older ones are of course much easier to observe , but that does not mean that more and more chunks undiscovered space debris coming towards earth .
