Astrophyzix.com is an independent digital observatory publication offering unpaywalled, evidence‑driven analysis and real‑time monitoring of PHAs and NEOs. Our tracking consoles and reporting systems use and provide access to official NASA CNEOS Scout, JPL CAD, NeoWs, JPL SBDB, Horizons and NOAA observational datasets, peer‑reviewed sources, and high‑precision numerical methods (IEEE‑754 Float64, RKN4). Designed for students, educators, researchers, and the public, every console is uniquely designed and engineered by the Astrophyzix Digital Observatory. Our research notes and papers can be found at Astrophyzix.Academia.Edu
The following Near-Earth Object (NEO) monitoring report summarises asteroid flybys recorded between 9 March and 12 March 2026. Data is compiled from the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Small-Body Database and associated planetary defence monitoring systems maintained by the Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS).
Object: 2020 BX15 (Updated: 2 March 2026)
Classification: Aten Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA)
Discovery Date: 27 January 2020 (Catalina Sky Survey)
Data Source: NASA JPL Small-Body Database (SBDB) & Minor
Planet Center
This mid-week technical assessment summarises the orbital state, physical constraints, and planetary defense status of near-Earth asteroid 2020 BX15 using official NASA/JPL orbital solutions and peer-reviewed near-Earth asteroid research.
Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are small rocky bodies whose orbits bring them close to Earth. Recent radar and optical observations have revealed that many of these objects exist not as solitary rocks but as binary or triple systems, where two or three bodies orbit one another. This article examines the confirmed cases of such systems, presenting only verified, peer-reviewed findings to provide an accurate, factual overview of their physical properties, orbital dynamics, and significance for planetary science.
This midweek Near-Earth Object monitoring report summarises confirmed close approaches recorded in NASA/JPL orbital databases for the period 23–26 February 2026. All orbital solutions referenced here are validated entries from the Small-Body Database and represent routine Solar System traffic with no impact risk.
A total of 25 catalogued near-Earth asteroids pass within 100 lunar distances during this reporting window. None are classified as hazardous.
