As observations continue, the likelihood of an Earth impact in 2027 is increasing. 3 weeks after discovery, after observations had to be paused during the full Moon (and reduced visibility), the chance of impact has risen to 1 in 250

Look how fast a 60m fragment could cause damage
seconds is all it takes. People, buildings, jobs all at risk.
Really enjoyed following this exercise all week. Learned so much from it

What if an Asteroid were to impact the Earth in the immediate future? What would experts do? The IAA Planetary Defense Conference is asking these same questions!

NASA preps for the asteroid that will (eventually) hit Earth http://bit.ly/2GOz8yt We're safe now, but what happens if astronomers DO discover an asteroid on a collision course? A conference this week explores our options!

Very little is known about the asteroid’s physical properties. From its brightness, experts determine that its size could be anywhere from 100-300 meters - about 5-15x bigger than the 2013
