DRUDGE: Bus-Size Asteroid Buzzing Earth Tonight Stars in Slooh Webcast
Bus-Size Asteroid Buzzing Earth Tonight Stars in Slooh Webcast

By Elizabeth Howell, Space.com Contributor | January 24, 2017 12:25pm ET

A bus-size asteroid will safely pass between Earth and the moon today (Jan. 24), and the online Slooh observatory will provide live views of the space rock just hours before its closest approach.

The asteroid, called 2017 BX, is about the size of a bus, according to NASA's Asteroid Watch tracker. NASA estimates that the object is about 28 feet (8.5 meters) wide. You can see the orbit of the asteroid, as projected by the Near-Earth Object Program at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
