Author: Magi-cat

"A mountain-size asteroid will zoom past Earth Monday (Jan. 26), marking the closest pass by such a large space rock until 2027.

[Asteroid 2004 BL86](http://www.space.com/28260-asteroid-flying-by-earth-could-be-half-kilometer-wide-orbit-animation.html), which is about 1,800 feet (550 meters) wide, will come within 745,000 miles (1.2 million kilometers) of our planet Monday — about three times the distance between Earth and the moon."
