Asteroid shaves past Earth's atmosphere
"Asteroid shaves past Earth's atmosphere"
"This was an extraordinarily close encounter and so the orbital change was quite extraordinary. 2004 FU162 was deflected by about 20 degrees because of the Earth's gravity. I've never seen anything like that before," Chesley told New Scientist." -http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99996307
