Thanks for the link now I know where to look for it, hopefully it won´t be cloudy🙂
No need to wait, get this one🙂
Reminder to those who want to watch it pass by at the 1.4 lunar distance, it'll be passing by in 14 hours. 3:33 AM ET and 12:33 AM PT.
The asteroid will reach an approximate apparent magnitude 10.3 on Jan. 29-30 before quickly becoming fainter as it moves farther from Earth. On that night, the asteroid will be observable in dark and clear skies through amateur telescopes with apertures of at least 7.6 centimeters (three inches). An object with a magnitude of 10.3 is about 50 times fainter than an object just visible to the naked eye in a clear, dark sky.
For those who are tracking it. Probably wont be able to see it with the naked eye.
