Scientific paper

As noted in the Photometry Opportunities article (this issue), on November 8, 2011 at 23:28 UT the approximately 400-meter Ctype asteroid 2005 YU55 will pass inside the Moonís orbit at 0.0022 AU (85% of the Earth-Moon distance) and reach a brightness of V~11. Such an encounter for an asteroid of this size occurs but once every few decades and thus enables a host of exciting and novel scientific investigations.
