RIP- Chinese Astronomer Zeng Wei Zhou 1988-2015 I have a very sad news that Zeng Wei Zhou (Born on November 9, 1988, died at home 2:00am on May 11 2015. He loved astronomy since he was a child. He specialized in visual meteor observations, satellite observations and forecasts of asteroid occultations. Before his death, he also built a small remote control observatory at home. He provided meteor observers with a lot of help and has been recognized by everyone in China for his contributions.So all of China's astronomy enthusiasts were sadden of the news of his death. Chinese astronomy researcher Quanzhi Ye, has submitted an asteroid naming proposal, hoping to commemorate him for his contribution to Chinese astronomy. I think we should all remember his contribution.

Published on Jun 14, 2015 1566 Icarus is a large asteroid about 1.4 Km in size and is belong to Apollo group that comes close to Earth. It is named after Icarus of Greek mythology, who flew too close to the Sun. It was discovered in 1949 by Walter Baade. on June 14, 1968, Icarus came as close as 4 millon miles and became the first minor planet to be observed using radar. In the spring of 1967 MIT students put a project code named "Project Icarus ", to save Earth in case it might collide with Earth, and that project became the subject of Hollywood movie "Meteor". For the first time scientists seriously studied as how to avert a doomsday impacts from space rocks, as Icarus is large enough to be classified as a killer asteroid!
The next close approach will be June 16, 2015, at 0.05383 AU (8,053,000 km; 5,004,000 mi).http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/ca/
