Confirmation Images of the Near-Earth Object 2015 PK9 on 2015-08-10

The Near-Earth Object  2015 PK9 (Orbit type: Apollo ) was first observed at SONEAR Observatory, Oliveira.(MPC code Y00)  on 2015 08 10.10036. The asteroid has an approximate diameter 49 m - 110 m ( Absolute Magnitude:  H= 23.651). This  asteroid made  a close-approach  to Earth on 2015-08-07 Nominal Distance (AU) : 0.0148213183067307 (5.768 Lunar Distances). The asteroid's  Earth MOID (Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance) is  0.013686 AU (5.326 Lunar Distances). The last published Observations was made at: 2015 08 11.54955. At the time of this 122 observations have been made and the orbit has as uncertainty of  6.

Confirmation Images of the Near-Earth Object 2015 LF on 2015-06-07

The Near-Earth Object 2015 LF (Orbit type: Apollo ) was first observed by the Catalina Sky Survey(MPC code 703) on 2015 06 07. The asteroid has an approximate diameter of 13 m - 31 m ( ~45 foot - 102 foot) ( H=26.4) and will make a close approach to earth on 2015-Jun-08 at ~ 23:49 UT (06:49 PM CDT) at an approximate distance of 0.00131Astronomical Units ( 0.51 Lunar Distances) or 121,772.108 Miles (195,973.211 KM).

While 2015 LF was on the NEO Confirmation Page in an effort to help in the confirmation I ran three series of 30 -- 10 Second Luminance BIN2 Images on itelescope.net's (TEL T27 0.70-m f/6.6 CDK astrograph + CCD) at Siding Spring Observatory, Coonabarabran, NSW, Australia. (MPC Q62) and created 4 stacks 15 images (run number one was not used due to poor sky).

The Asteroid 2015 AZ43 On 2015-02-14 From Mayhill, New Mexico (New Mexico Skies) - MPC H06

The Near-Earth Object(Orbit type: Apollo ) 2015 AZ43 was first observed by Pan-STARRS 1 on 2015-01-11 and has been listed as a Virtual Impactor by SENTRY (JPL). 2015 AZ43 has a VERY SMALL impact risk(0.012%) for the date 2107-02-27.19. With more observations this risk could be rule out. In an effort to help improve the orbit I ran a imaging run from Mayhill, New Mexico (New Mexico Skies) - MPC H06 using itelescope.net's(TEL  T21 0.43-m f/6.8 astrograph + CCD + f/4.5 focal reducer) on 2015-02-14.

The NEO (357439) 2004 BL86 On the Night of 2014-12-20

The NEO (357439) 2004 BL86 (Orbit type: Apollo ) (estimated to be 440–1000 meters in diameter) will safely make a Close-Approach of 3.1 Lunar Distance on 27 January 2015. This will be the closest "known" Approach by something this large (H = 18.8) until 2027, and may will briefly peak at around apparent magnitude 9. It has been schedule for Goldstone Observations(2015 Jan 27-Feb 1).
