ALERT- Increased Meteor Activity!  Expect some large fireballs this month and especially large ones 3-5 days before and following there passing of the  FOUR small mountain-sized NEO asteroids that will safely pass this month.

1999 XM141 

There are currently 12 3 4 5 6 7 9 10 11 12 13 15 16 17 known NEO Asteroids discovered that will pass within approximately 10LD or less (LD stands for "Lunar Distance"), in the month of MAY 2015; expect that 10 or more 10LD NEOs will be discovered before month end. Be ready for some bolide, fireball, and meteor activity!
