NEOs Asteroids Close Approaches January 2015

NEOs Asteroids Close Approaches January 2015
ALERT- Several MORE Large Meteors PENDING!

January 2015 Meteors
c2015 Dirk Ross

  There are currently 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 known NEO Asteroids discovered that will pass within approximately 10LD or less, LD stands for "Lunar Distance", in the month of January; expect that 10 or more NEOs will be discovered before month end. Be ready for some bolide, fireball, and meteor activity!

 Unfortunately we will be Moonblind for ground-based detection from 02DEC2014 until about the 11JAN2015  and from 28JAN-12FEB2015 so I expect several asteroids that will go undetected.

 There are four small mountan-sized asteroids that will safely pass this month.
