Please report your meteor sightings to this website for posting- Remember IF you are looking for a report and no one reports then everyone lacks information; thank you.

There are currently 1, 8,10, 11,12  18 known NEO Asteroids discovered that will pass within approximately 10LD or less (LD stands for "Lunar Distance"), in the month of October 2015.
I expect that 10 or more 10LD NEOs will be discovered before month end.

 Expect some spectacular bolides,  fireballs, and meteors this month and especially large ones 3-5 days before and following the passing of  7 small mountain-sized NEO asteroids and 1 comet, diameters ranging from 500m- 2.6km,  that will safely pass this month.

 Be ready for some bolide, fireball, and meteor activity!
Cameras Ready!
If you get video or photo of a meteor please email to - LunarMeteoriteHunter@gmail.com

Currently Reported Asteroids with LD of LD10 or Less-

in your option do you think the 2015 TB145 will hit??

Lunar Meteorite * Hunter said...

Sean O'Brian, There is NO chance that it will hit this pass. The closer it gets to us and once passed we will have better certainly of any future collision probability.

Why does Neodysis give the close approach probability at 1.00e-0 for 10/31 and also estimate the distance to be .007AU on November 1? Why should I not worry about these numbers? Please educate me so I can stop harassing my cat for cuddles :)
