Space Weather News for Jan. 21, 2015
http://spaceweather.com
 
Early next week, a large asteroid named 2004 BL86 will fly past the Earth-Moon
system.  There's no danger of a collision, but NASA radars will be monitoring
the mountain-sized space rock as it passes by only 745,000 miles away. Amateur
astronomers can watch the flyby, too. Glowing like a 9th magnitude star, 2004
BL86 will be an easy target for backyard telescopes on the night of closest
approach, Jan. 26-27.  Check http://spaceweather.com for observing tips and
more information.
