Posted to YouTube by nemesis maturity 95 views
Thank you Elias for the fine video!

Historically two very large meteorite falls have occurred on 05MAR1960 "Gao-Guinea, Burkina-Faso" and "Jilin, China"  08MAR1976; March historically has at least 66 meteorite falls documented.

Last year, March 2013, was a very active month, 13 newly discovered NEOs with an LD of less than 10LD- 
 2013 EC. 2013 ET , 2013 EN20 , 2013 ES11 , 2013 ES , 2013 EC20 , 2013 EA29 , 2013 ES41, 2013 ED68 2013 EL89 2013 FG 2013 FD82013 FB8

There are at presently 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 21 known NEOs for March 2014 with an LD of less than or about 10LD; 1 LD = Lunar Distance = ~384,000 kilometers  = 238,607 miles.

  2014 FD    2014 F Z  2014 FM33 2014 FT37  2014 FK38 
 2014 FO38

The number NEOs with an LD of less than 10 will increase dramatically before the month is finished!  Expect some greatly increased meteor activity just prior to and just after 04MAR through 16MAR.  Get the word out by posting about this website on  Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and your favorite forums; thank you!

 IF I am right, please enjoy!  IF I am wrong, enjoy the night sky anyway. -Stay calm this is not the end of the World yet.

First Ring System Around Asteroid Chariklo found to have two rings - Discovered by Brasilian Scientists and International Team / ESO

26 March 2014

c2014 ESO  Image Credit- ESO  Click to Enlarge

Observations at many sites in South America, including ESO’s La Silla Observatory, have made the surprise discovery that the remote asteroid Chariklo is surrounded by two dense and narrow rings. This is the smallest object by far found to have rings and only the fifth body in the Solar System — after the much larger planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune — to have this feature. The origin of these rings remains a mystery, but they may be the result of a collision that created a disc of debris. The new results are published online in the journal Nature on 26 March 2014. ...

Emailed Report-

So my sister and I saw what we thought was the largest meteor either of us have ever seen the weekend past. I have been searching and searching and I have yet to find one news report on it. I was wondering if you've found any reports. Last Saturday, march 22,2014 at approximately 9:55 pm in Bountiful, UT we sighted it. I was driving and about recked my car it looked so close it could've hit the earth. I was facing north and I watched the meteor fall and it looked like it exploded... it disappeared for a split second then began where it disappeared again and continued to fall. It again disappeared what seemed rather close to the earth. This was one of the most incredible things my sister and I have ever seen, and I am hoping you know more about it! Thanks
Tiffany N

NASA Seeks Proposals on Asteroid Redirect Mission Concepts Development

NASA Seeks Proposals on Asteroid Redirect Mission Concepts Development

In support of NASA's Asteroid Redirect Mission - a key part of the agency's stepping stone path to send humans to Mars - agency officials are seeking proposals for studies on advanced technology development.

Through a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), released Friday, NASA hopes to solicit proposals for concept studies in areas including asteroid capture systems, rendezvous sensors, adapting commercial spacecraft for the Asteroid Redirect Mission and feasibility studies of potential future partnership opportunities for secondary payloads and the crewed mission.

"As NASA continues to make great progress refining our mission concepts, we're reaching out to seek new and innovative ideas as we extend the frontier of space exploration," said William Gerstenmaier, associate administratorfor Human Exploration and Operations at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "To reach Mars, we'll rely on new technologies and advanced capabilities proven through the Asteroid Initiative. We're looking forward to excitingideas from outside NASA as well to help realize that vision."

Following evaluations of the proposals, NASA plans to select no more than 25 proposals and make total awards of as much as $6 million. Contracts would begin and end this year. More information can be found in the BAA, available at:
http://go.nasa.gov/1jhiPXs

The announcement precedes a Wednesday, March 26, Asteroid Initiative Opportunities Forum at NASA Headquarters. The forum will provide status updates from
ongoing Asteroid Redirect Mission concept and extensibility refinement and expand on the BAA, which is a follow-on step from the 2013 Request for Information in mission planning activities. The event also will highlight opportunities for public engagement in the mission and activities associated with the agency's Asteroid Grand Challenge. The forum will be carried
on NASA Television and streamed online for virtual participants. For the agenda and to register as a virtual participant, go to:
http://socialforms.nasa.gov/asteroidforum-virtual

NASA's Asteroid Initiative includes the Asteroid Grand Challenge and the Asteroid Redirect Mission. The grand challenge will develop new partnerships and collaborations to accelerate the agency's existing planetary defense work, and the mission will collect and redirect an asteroid where astronauts can explore and sample it.

The Asteroid Redirect Mission has three major elements: target identification; a robotic mission to capture and redirect the selected asteroid into a stable orbit beyond the moon; and a crewed segment in which astronauts in NASA's Orion spacecraft launched on the Space Launch System rocket will rendezvous with the captured asteroid, conduct spacewalks to collect samples from it, and return them to the Earth for analysis. New capabilities and systems tested through the Asteroid Initiative will advance NASA's ultimate goal of sending humans to Mars.
