Timeline of known close approaches less than one lunar distance from Earth in 2014

[edit]

A list of known near-Earth asteroid close approaches less than 1 lunar distance (384,400 km or 0.00257 AU) from Earth in 2014.[note 1]

For reference, the radius of Earth is approximately 0.0000426 AU (6,370 km; 3,960 mi) or 0.0166 Lunar distances.
The orbit of geosynchronous satellites, however, is 0.000282 AU (42,200 km; 26,200 mi) or 0.110 Lunar distances. This year, 3 asteroids were detected which traveled nearer than this, most notably 2014 AA, which impacted. This list does not include any of the other 32 objects that collided with earth in 2014, none of which were discovered in advance, but were recorded by sensors designed to detect detonation of nuclear devices (of the 33 objects detected 5 had an impact energy greater than that of a 1 kiloton device).[1]

  Rows highlighted red indicate objects which were not discovered until after closest approach

  Rows highlighted yellow indicate objects discovered less than 24 hours before closest approach

  Rows highlighted green indicate objects discovered more than one week before closest approach

  Rows highlighted turquoise indicate objects discovered more than 7 weeks before closest approach

  Rows highlighted blue indicate objects discovered more than one year before closest approach (i.e.
objects successfully cataloged on a previous orbit, rather than being detected during final approach)

Warning Times by Size

[edit]

This sub-section visualises the warning times of the close approaches listed in the above table, depending on the size of the asteroid. The sizes of the charts show the relative sizes of the asteroids to scale. For comparison, the approximate size of a person is also shown. This is based the absolute magnitude of each asteroid, an approximate measure of size based on brightness.

Timeline of close approaches less than one Lunar distance from the Moon in 2014

[edit]

The number of asteroids listed here are significantly less than those of asteroids approaching Earth for several reasons:

  • Asteroids approaching Earth not only move faster, but are brighter and are easier to detect with modern surveys due to these factors
  • Asteroids approaching closer to Earth are higher priority to confirm, and only confirmed asteroids are listed with a lunocentric approach distance
  • Those which make close approaches to the Moon are frequently lost in its glare, making them harder to confirm, and are more easily discovered during the new Moon, when the Moon is too close to the Sun for any asteroids to be detected while they are near to the Moon anyway.

These factors combined severely limit the amount of Moon-approaching asteroids, to a level many times lower than the detected asteroids to pass just as close to Earth instead.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Distance from the center of the Moon to the center of the object. the Moon has a radius of approximately 1,740 km.
  2. ^ if 2014 AA had not hit Earth, it would have traveled much closer to the Moon

Radar-imaging of 2006 DP14, which passed by Earth in early February 2014 at a distance of 6.25 LD

An example list of near-Earth asteroids that passed more than 1 lunar distance (384,400 km or 0.00256 AU) from Earth in 2014.

  • (388188) 2006 DP14 (~300 meters in diameter) passed 6.2 lunar distances from Earth on 10 February 2014.
  • 2000 EM26 (~200 meters in diameter) passed more than 0.018 AU (2,700,000 km; 1,700,000 mi) from Earth on 17–18 February 2014.
  • 2014 HJ197 (~3 meters in diameter) may have passed as close as 0.97 lunar distances (371,000 km) from Earth (0.68 lunar distances (261,000 km) from the Moon on either April 14 or 15th, 2014, but the nominal orbit calculates an approach of 1.29 lunar distances (495,000 km) from Earth (1.23 lunar distances (473,000 km) from the Moon).
  • 2014 KH39 (~25 meters in diameter) passed 1.1 lunar distances from Earth on 3 June 2014.[40]
  • 2014 HQ124 (~325 meters in diameter) passed 3.25 lunar distances from Earth on 8 June 2014.
  • 2014 OO6 (~75 meters in diameter) passed 0.0297 AU (4,440,000 km; 2,760,000 mi) from Earth on 18 August 2014.
  • 2014 XL7 (~230 meters in diameter) passed roughly 0.26 AU (39,000,000 km; 24,000,000 mi) from Earth on 1 September 2014.
  • The orbit of 2009 RR (20–45 meters in diameter) with an observation arc of only 4 days predicted that it could pass just inside 1 lunar distance on 2014-09-16, but the orbital uncertainties show that it could have passed as much as 0.1 AU (15,000,000 km; 9,300,000 mi) from Earth.[41]
  • 2014 SN142 (~10 meters in diameter) passed 1.1 lunar distances from Earth on 23 September 2014.[42]
  • 2014 SC324 (~60 meters in diameter) passed 1.5 lunar distances from Earth on 24 October 2014.[43]
