Bump a previous asteroid that was lost, has been found zooming between Earth and the Moon tonight

Astronomers discovered asteroid 2010 WC9 on Nov. 30, 2010. However, it soon faded from view and was lost. But now it's back, and it's going to whiz past Earth between Monday and Tuesday.


Astronomers estimate the asteroid to be 71 metres in diameter (though it could be larger). It will pass about half the distance between Earth and the moon — about 200,000 kilometres — travelling around 12.8 kilometres a second.

I'd like to remind you all that this asteroid is clearly following the universal law of the Galaxy, ABC always be closing
