I had to record this with the cam again,I did screen captures and YT just kept refusing to upload it.
So sorry about the quality,if you can grab a screen capture work away
and deliver a crisper copy Thanks.

  • THAT doesn't look like any asteroid! Its perfectly round. Is this just some standard image the program uses for asteriods? And if it is suppose to pass by us tomorrow, why does it look like the system had to go so far deep into space to locate it? Very strange imo.

  • @MarsBar2012

    Alright mate.

    Ive been looking at it a few times now,the "image" has been "rotating" in the program,but you have to watch it at different times to notice.Crazy.

see all

  • 2011 MD is right now at it's closest distance which is 1.016 AU. It will remain at this distance until July 8th and then it will gradually get further away from earth.

  • Might be landing in a Volcano.

    No problem thanks,

    I also refreshed about 5 mins ago and got a "google error" "My video could not be found."

    Censorship ;-)
