Space Weather News for June 24, 2011 http://spaceweather.comASTEROID FLYBY: Newly-discovered asteroid 2011 MD will pass only 12,000 kilometers (7,500 miles) above Earth's surface on Monday, June 27th. NASA analysts say there is no chance the space rock will strike Earth. Nevertheless, the encounter is so close that Earth's gravity will sharply perturb the asteroid's trajectory. Details at http://spaceweather.com . GEOMAGNETIC OUTLOOK: A fast-moving stream of solar wind is buffeting Earth's magnetic field. The combined effect of this stream plus a CME expected to arrive on June 24th has prompted NOAA forecasters to declare a ~30% chance of high-latitude geomagnetic storms during the next 24 hours. Storm alerts are available from Spaceweather.com in two forms: voice ( http://spaceweatherphone.com) or text ( http://spaceweathertext.com).

I have seen a news that mentions about another asteroid passes the earth.When we talk about asteroids, this are class of solar system bodies in orbit around the sun. They are also rocky and metallic objects that orbit the sun but are too small to be considered as planets. In the news, they also mentioned that an asteroid about the size of a bus will glide over the Atlantic Monday morning. It's going to pass only about 7,500 miles over the surface. It is the 5th closet near-miss in documented history, and is nearer to earth than the moon.
