Two Meteors Close Approach! Flybys Between Earth & Moon!

James Hoffman, World News Report today. Ladies and gentlemen, JPL has announced two space rocks that are inbound for a close approach and flyby. One in about 48 hours and the other next month. Now we're going to go over the rock that's inbound in what it says here on the 13th. But it's really going to be late on the 12th here in the U.S. First rock is 2026 EG1. It is here. It was actually just picked up on the 8th, and you can see how close it is to Earth. And if we move from the 10th, which is today, to the 11th, 12th, and 13th, well, they merge as one. Now, this is supposed to fly between the Moon and Earth. It's thought to be about 50 to 60 feet in diameter. Not necessarily huge, but rocks that size are known to do a lot of damage. it is coming in at an inclination although not a really heavy inclination it's moving at about 9.6 kilometers per second which is pretty fast again this is 2026 EG1 inbound for late night on the 12th although this does say the 13th i.e. UTC time so this space rock or near Earth object 2026 EG1 was first spotted two days ago on the 8th they've just released the information to the public they've been the Jet Propulsion Laboratory you can see right here March 10th they've just released it like to pick these things up quickly if they're going to be close to Earth and this one is going to fly between Earth and our moon here they've had a total of 71 observations which seems like a lot although they have a really high condition code here the condition code of seven is not great news it means they don't feel like they have the information they need nine means they have no idea how big the rock is or where it's headed zero means they know exactly how large it is exactly where it's headed seven being much closer to a nine than a zero as y'all can imagine This rock was, of course, spotted by our ARI software, Automatic, here, again, two days ago, and they've released the information just now to the public. And, again, this rock was, or is, about 50 to 60 feet in diameter, we think, but we have a really high-condition code here. So this is kind of strange. Regularly, when they have 71 observations, they're able to extrapolate future and past flybys, and you might have pages of flybys they don't have that they just have what's going to happen in the next 48 72 hours here they have the earth close approach and the lunar close approach and it looks like it's going to go right between the two which means it will be thousands of miles away hopefully although again the condition code is seven so it's still all a guess you're looking for it to come in march 13th at 3 27 which translates into about 10 27 p.m central time on the 12th of march here in the u.s so because this is utc time and we're going to move it to conventional central time it's looking like it'll make its close approach on the evening of the 12th at 10 27 at night and it looks like it's moving about 9.62 kilometers per second which is a pretty good speed so that's our first worry right there happening on the evening of the 12th i think we should be fine although that condition code should bother you that's 2026 EG1 50 60 feet in diameter moving at 9.61 kilometers per second coming in at a slight angle here and i think uh we're gonna move on to the second close flyby that's gonna happen April 14th April 14th so about 33 days from now now this is 2013 GM3 we have covered this rock before uh and it is an inner solar system rock one day it'll definitely hit one of these planets this rock is thought to be about 70 to 75 feet in diameter so that is quite a bit larger there's no inclination it's just about on the surface or on the same plane as most of the planets uh this rock again is 2013 GM3 which means it was actually first seen discovered in 2013 and you can see that they've been keeping an eye on it let's take a look at this space rocker near earth object as far as the data Alright, the solution date is back in 2021, and looks like they haven't been messing with it much. Last observed in 2013. Guess this was an update. Total observation days, 12 days, 61 total observations. So this comes from extrapolated information. You would think that they would pick the rock back up. they must not be able to and give us some updated information although we still have a few days i.e. they think about August 14th so we have to deal with this this has a high condition code as well because 2013 GM3 is larger well they're not quite sure how large it is nine means that they have no idea how big it is or where it's headed zero means they know exactly where it's headed and how large it is and obviously seven is much closer to nine than zero it was spotted by our AI software of course automatic and it doesn't look like they've picked it back up on this spin so let's hope they do pick that up and update some of this information you can see they've extrapolated four pages of close flybys this rock is eventually going to hit one of the your solar system's planets and across the fourth page here where we can see the close approach April 14th, the Earth and Moon, this one's going to be a little bit closer to the moon than Earth as you can see here it's going to be very close to the moon, let's hope it doesn't hit the moon here point zero zero zero one which is probably about 50,000 miles but condition code so high i.e. seven well they need to get their eyes on this rock and figure out where it's headed because it is rather large if y'all remember the rock that uh blew up over Russia a few years back was about the same size as this rock, this rock doesn't have a real inclination to it but it is thought to be moving at about seven to eight kilometers per second which is a good clip again supposed to be coming a lot closer to the moon here as you can see than earth but we'll be going between the two now let's see what time this is going to be it's going to be april 14th at 16 15 so 11 15 in the morning central time on april 14th 11 15 in the morning central time on april 14th in summary we have two decent sized space rocks meteors near earth objects that will actually feed the needle right between earth and the moon and that's all going to happen on the evening of the 12th and then on April 14th at about 11.30 in the morning. So y'all stay prepared, eyes to the sky. These things usually have friends with them in my past experience. That's it. God bless you all. Please make sure to share. I am off Facebook until they okay my new phone, believe it or not. The rules these days. and please share on your Facebook page line if you will and give it a thumbs up give us a thumbs up and remember that anything's possible in Bizarro World God bless you all
