Live Independent Verifiable and reproducible Unpaywalled NASA-sourced

Astrophyzix Digital Observatory

Trusted for Asteroid News, Research, Data & Analysis

Delivering unpaywalled, evidence-driven analysis, public research tools, real-time datasets and monitoring and tracking of all PHA/NEO asteroids, comets and solar system objects.

Every tracking console is designed and engineered here. Systems directly ingest multiple NASA datasets covering over 1.57 million objects, then run live, verifiable probabilistic orbital analysis and deliver an instant deterministic summary of close approaches. Used by students, educators, researchers, and the public. Data provenance is traceable, verifiable and transparent. Original research papers are published on Astrophyzix.academia.edu, registered with official DOIs via Zenodo and academically indexed by OpenAIRE.

What this report shows: Each day this page lists the 30 near-earth objects (NEOs) making the closest approach to Earth, ranked by miss distance. Data is pulled live from the NASA Near Earth Object Web Service (NeoWs) using the official NASA API. When fewer than thirty approaches occur on the current day, the list is filled from upcoming days within the next week.

Key terms: A Near Earth Object is an asteroid or comet whose orbit brings it within roughly 1.3 astronomical units of the Sun. A Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) is a NEO larger than about 140 meters that can pass within 0.05 AU of Earth. PHA status reflects long-term orbital characteristics, not an imminent threat.

Units used: km = kilometers, LD = lunar distances (1 LD is about 384,400 km), AU = astronomical units (1 AU is about 149.6 million km), km/s = kilometers per second, H = absolute magnitude.
