2007 VE191 is a sub-kilometer asteroid, classified as near-Earth asteroid of the Apollo group that was listed on the Sentry Risk Table.[3]

Description

[edit]

It is estimated to be roughly 63 meters in diameter. In 2015 it was known to have a 1 in 63,000 chance of impacting Earth on 27 November 2015.[3] However, the nominal best-fit orbit showed that 2007 VE191 would be roughly 0.5 AU (75,000,000 km; 46,000,000 mi) from Earth on 27 November 2015 with an apparent magnitude of roughly +25 in the constellation of Virgo about 50 degrees from the Sun,[5] and the same nominal orbit gave a distance of closest approach to Earth of a little under 0.4 AU a few weeks earlier. It was removed from the Sentry Risk Table on 17 September 2015,[6] but was still listed at NEODyS with odds of 1 in 3 million for 27 November 2015 during the approach window.[7]

2007 VE191 was discovered on 15 November 2007 by the Mount Lemmon Survey at an apparent magnitude of 20 using a 1.5-meter (59 in) reflecting telescope.[1] On 28 November 2007, it passed 0.0128 AU (1,910,000 km; 1,190,000 mi) from Earth.[8] 2007 VE191 has an observation arc of 13 days with an uncertainty parameter of 7, which means its orbit is poorly constrained.[2] 2007 VE191 was last observed on 28 November 2007.[2] By 1 December 2007, the asteroid had faded to below magnitude 25.[9]

With an absolute magnitude of 23.6,[2] 2007 VE191 is about 50–110 meters in diameter.[4]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
