2011 MD



the '2011 MD' space rock still missed us by 7,600 miles
and even if it had hit,
it would have been expected to burn up high in the atmosphere… but even so.

the 20 meter wide asteroid was closest to Earth at around 6pm, Jun 27, 2011
and was bright enough to be seen even with a modest-sized telescope.
