"Asteroid 2025 TF flew just 420 km (260 miles) above Antarctica, second-closest flyby on record" by The Watchers - The #asteroid #2025TF was discovered 6 hours before closest approach to Earth. At 1.2-2.7m diameter, it would not have been a threat. As people, telescopes and computers get better at catching Near-Earth Objects (NEOs), the increasing pace of such news shows how common this has always been. https://watchers.news/2025/10/02/asteroid-2025-tf-flew-just-420-km-260-miles-above-antarctica-second-closest-flyby-on-record/ #asteroid #astronomy #LowFlyingRocks
