For the world is rushing a large asteroid – a meeting will take place on Halloween (Video) – Commander

NASA specialists discovered a giant asteroid that 31 October will approach Earth at a record close in nine years away. The speed of a celestial body is 35 kilometers per second, which is uncharacteristically high rate, according to the agency.

celestial body, called 2015 TB145, will be held in 499 thousand. Km of the Earth, which equals 1.3 the distance from the Earth to the Moon.

According to specialists, the diameter of the asteroid is between 280 to 620 m. to work in the NASA scientists could not detect it earlier because of the unpredictable trajectory and speed. However, according to their forecasts, the heavenly body does not pose any danger to Earth.

roject AIDA, initiated by the joint efforts of ESA and NASA in the late spring period of 2012, involves sending an asteroid 2 small spacecraft .

According to assumptions, it poses no threat to Earth. According to experts, this figure uncharacteristically high for the same celestial bodies. In Halloween – Halloween – from Earth it will separate about 500 000 km.

Meanwhile, Chelyabinsk meteorite was moving at a speed of 19 kilometers per second, but its size does not exceed 17 meters. However, scientists say that a heavenly body poses no danger to Earthlings. This point of convergence will be closest to Earth in July 2006. At least at this very hard to believe …

In the middle of the autumn of this year in the capital Congress passed the “Global and national strategies of risk management and natural disasters.” Therefore, professionals regularly engage in the search for asteroids and warn people. A speed – 35 kilometers per second. Its diameter, researchers estimate that is from 280 to 620 meters. So close to the earth’s surface of the asteroid flew for the last time in 2006, the year.

The last time a similar astronomical object was flying very close to the Earth in 2006. Next asteroid of similar size will pass close to Earth in 2027, according to “RIA Novosti».

Scientists often fix approach to the orbit of the Earth asteroids. In October 2014, Russian scientists discovered a dangerous asteroid, which move in an orbit, involving a collision with the Earth. Heavenly body was recorded with the help of a network of robotic telescopes MASTER created MSU. MV University in cooperation with three domestic universities (Yekaterinburg, Irkutsk and Blagoveshchensk), Kislovodsk station of the Pulkovo Observatory Academy of Sciences and the University of San Juan (Argentina).
