Near-Earth Object Close Approach Report — 13–16 March 2026
📌 Cited by Innovatopia NewsThe following Near-Earth Object (NEO) monitoring report summarises asteroid flybys occurring between 13 March and 16 March 2026. Data is compiled from the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Small-Body Database and associated planetary defence monitoring systems.
Distances are expressed in Lunar Distances (LD), where 1 LD = 384,400 km. This unit provides an intuitive scale for evaluating asteroid flybys relative to the Earth–Moon system.
During this monitoring interval 25 catalogued Near-Earth Objects make relatively close approaches to Earth. None of the objects present any impact risk. Several larger asteroids are formally classified as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs), however all remain safely tens of lunar distances from Earth.
