Possible Earth-Asteroid-Earth bounce?
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/asteroid20101011.html
In the next dozen hours or so, asteroid 2010 TD54 is wizzing by the Earth, and
at closest approach (11:50am ZULU time, Oct. 12th) it will be directly over
Singapore area at an altitude of about 30k miles. It's about 20-25 ft or so in
diameter (tiny), but it might be an iron ore, which would increase the
potential for better radio reflectivity...
You can calculate the Eperedies for 2010 TD54
here: http://www.minorplanetcenter.org/iau/MPEph/MPEph.html Any big guns who'd
like to take on an Asteroid SKED?
