2005 YU55 - Close Call Posted on: 10.11.2011 by Latoria Kavulich Talk about a close shave! A craggy, 1,300-foot wide bit of space rock missed Earth toevening in the closest encounter by such a massive space rock in more than three decades. Countless asteroids, gravity wells and other celestial bodies had shaped its course that could have turned this near miss into a disaster, said Ron Dantowitz, director of the Clay Center Observatory in Brookline, Mass. "Everything shapes its course," Datowitz told FoxNews.com, even the Earth and moon that asteroid 2005 YU55 breezed past at 6:28 p.m. EST Tuesday, Nov. 8. At that point, the space rock was traveling at about 29,000 mph ... a whopping 8 miles per second. The asteroid has travelled light years to reach us, on a trajectory affected by planets, asteroids, space dust and more. Toevening it was a mere 201,700 miles from Earth -- closer than the moon at one point. What if the tug of gravity from a planet in a galaxy far, far away had been slightly stronger? What if the course of asteroid 2005 YU55 had been altered by a tiny amount, a few micrometers -- micrometers that added up over the course of millions of light years? Indeed, even the effect of light is enough to alter the path of an asteroid. "The | |
