[BAA-ebulletin 00837] Near Earth Asteroid 357439 (2004 BL86) - Live feed

======================================================================
BAA electronic bulletin
======================================================================

Weather permitting the BAA is planning to broadcast a live feed of images of this bright asteroid close-approach using my telescope in Chelmsford.

http://britastro.org/liveobs/2004bl86.php

If all goes well we should first see the object around 1900UT as it rises above my local horizon. At that time the object will be around magnitude 9.6 moving at around 160 arcsec/minute (0.04 deg/min).

For a short while tonight this object will be brighter than 9th magnitude and it will be visible in large binoculars or a small telescope. For details see the article by Richard Miles on our website:
