At the end of June 2011, our planet was brushed by a little (7 to 15 meters in diameter) asteroid, 2011 MD. It reached a minimum distance for the surface of our planet of about...
Comet C/2012 S1 Ison Comet C/2012 S1 “Ison” continues its trip around the Sun, slowly approaching it, while professional and hobby astronomers hope it will match all its promises, becoming very bright by the...
After its relatively close encounter with our planet (at 15 millions of km from the Earth) , potentially hazardous asteroid (99942) Apophis was imaged again at the Virtual Telescope, using the 17″ robotic unit, to...

As our visitors well know, the Virtual Telescope Project and its team reserve a special attention to those asteroids closely approaching our planet. This in true in two different ways: at one side, the...
At about 36 hours from the minimum distance (15 millions of km from the Earth) , potentially hazardous asteroid (99942) Apophis was imaged again with the Virtual Telescope, this time using the 17″ robotic...
The Virtual Telescope observed the potentially hazardous asteroid (99942) Apophis several times over the past few days and finally, using a set of images captured on Jan. 4, it was possible to make this...
The Virtual Telescope is continuing tracking the interesting and famous potentially hazardous asteroid (99942) Apophis. It will reach a distance of 15 millions of km from the Earth on Jan. 2013, with no risks...
The famous potentially hazardous asteroid (99942) Apophis is on its way to reach the minimum (but very large to be safe) distance of 15 millions of km from us in a few days. The...
Discovered on 21 Sept. 2012, comet C/2012 S1 showed a great potential since the very beginning. Late on Now. 2013 it will reach a minimum distance from the Sun of 1.2 millions of km. If...

As comet C/2012 K5 is still a nice view with a pair of binoculars and because it is now crossing very nice star fields across the winter constellations, we provide here an updated version...
Every time the year ends, it is very natural to look back and try to summarize what happened those last 12 months. At the Virtual Telescope we have been doing this too, so even...
