Asteroid 2011 MD

This is an awesome perspective of the asteroid 2011 MD coming close to the earth on June 27th.  It will come as close as 7500 miles from the earth before it hits the earth gravitational pull.  This will pull it around and change it's trajectory.  Good presentation.   This is not the closest asteroid that has come close to the earth this year.  2011 CQ1 came as close a 4500 miles on Feb. 4th.  Little to close.


passes Earth by 7500 miles
