Two Small Asteroids to Pass Close by Earth on September 8, 2010

Two asteroids, several meters in diameter and in unrelated orbits, will
pass within the Moon's distance of Earth on Wednesday, September 8th.
The Catalina Sky Survey near Tucson Arizona discovered both objects on
the morning of September 5 during their routine monitoring of the skies.
The Minor Planet Center in Cambridge Massachusetts first received the
observations Sunday morning, determined preliminary orbits and concluded
that both objects would pass within the distance of the Moon about three
days after their discovery. Near Earth asteroid 2010 RX30 is estimated
to be 10 to 20 meters in size and will pass within 0.6 lunar distances
of Earth (about 248,000 km) at 9:51 Greenwich standard time (5:51 am
EDT) Wednesday. The second object, 2010 RF12, estimated to be 6 to 14
meters in size will pass within 0.2 lunar distances (79,000 km) a few
hours later at 21:12 Greenwich standard time (5:12 pm EDT). Both objects
should be observable near closest approach with moderate sized amateur
telescopes. Although neither of these object has a chance of hitting
Earth, a ten meter-sized near-Earth asteroid from the undiscovered
population of about 50 million would be expected to pass almost daily
within a lunar distance, and one might strike Earth's atmosphere about
every ten years on average. -end-

These two are estimated to pass at 0.6 LD and 0.2 LD ; close, but not a cigar yet. Bodies of smaller sizes will accompany them and some just may visit the Earth as a meteor(s) in the coming days and weeks. See Table below.

Asteroid/meteorite Impact in Colombia - Impacto de Asteroide/Meteorito en Santander Colombia

posted on YouTube by elojoquetodolove2020 | 2010年09月05日302 views

There's not an official version about the exact type of object that fell down from the sky but helicopters are surrounding the zone in order to take pictures or a better insight of the place of the collision. Too bad I could not see the strange object (my father and some friends did) but I could hear the crazy strange explosion and the echo it did produce.

No hay una versión oficial sobre el tipo de artefacto que cayó del cielo, se dice que fué un bólido. Helicopteros y equipos de búsqueda investigan en la zona. Aunque lamentablemente no pude ver cuando cruzaba por el cielo (mi papá y unos amigos si lo vieron) si pude oír la extraña explosión que retumbo como un trueno con un eco.

Experts say that strange object is a meteorite

The scientists and investigators consulted by RCN The Radio coincide that the object or fire-ball that fell down in rural zone of Santander is a meteorite. The director of the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Nariño, Alberto Quijano, made sure that for the characteristics of the object it is a spatial garbage that is known as meteorite. He told that this meteorite would be quite big because “ it resisted the first layers of ambience " and asked the inhabitants of the municipality of San Joaquín to be attentive for if they feel an earthquake so that they locate the one that might be the place where it fell.
Meanwhile, the commander of the Metropolitan Police of Bucaramanga, brigadier general Yesis Vásquez Prada, said that it received reports of the mysterious light and asked for calmness to the community.

Mahomet, Illinois Meteor ? - Sept. 4, 2010 (unconfirmed)

Posted on 2010年9月4日 23:17:04 by Western Phil on www.freerepublic.com

During my morning run at 5:56 am Central Daylight Time, I witnessed the brightest meteor that I have ever seen. It was early dawn and still relatively dark. It passed to the north of Mahomet, Illinois (near Champaign) from the east, heading west. It lasted for a while and if I had been alert enough, I might have had enough time to get the camera out which I carry & get a picture. However, that didn't happen & it takes the thing a while to boot up anyway. There was some green during part of of the meteor's flight, so I wonder I wonder if it may have been a returning man made space object with electronics.
