NASA Coverage: 1998 QE2 Asteroid Passes Earth Friday


NASA is inviting members of the media and public to 
participate in online and televised events May 30 to 31 with NASA 
officials and experts discussing the agency's asteroid initiative and 
the Earth flyby of the 1.7-mile-long (2.7-kilometer-long) asteroid 1998 
QE2. 

At 1:59 p.m. PDT (4:59 p.m. EDT), Friday, May 31, the 1998 QE2 asteroid 
will pass by Earth at a safe distance of about 3.6 million miles (5.8 
million kilometers) -- its closest approach for at least the next two 
centuries.
