Just saw on another forum that a new asteroid was just discovered, named 2011 KE. I admittedly do not know alot about this science, but apparently a 450 meter asteroid was just discovered 2 days ago that will be making a flyby in the area of .07 AU of earth.

This does seem quite close.

ssd.jpl.nasa.gov...

Worth a discussion I'd say.

Ok, I guess converted to Lunar distance this would be around 27 LD, so in the scheme of things, this is not that close.

Always interesting to learn about new discoveries none the less.
