The Minor Planet Center just announced the discovery of a 4-14 meters large asteroid, 2014 EC, going to have an amazingly close encounter with the Earth Next Mar 6 at 22:05 UT: the minimum distance from our planet will be of 80.000 km (73.000 km from Earth surface), that is 0.21 times the mean distance of our Moon. It is an absolutely safe distance, so no risks at all of collision.

At Virtual Telescope we will show this small rock live, starting on 6 Mar. 2014, at 19:00 UT.
