Scientific paper

Characteristic orbits, sizes, eccentricity, inclinations, perihelic and aphelic distances, magnitudes, and heliocentric longitudes of earth grazing asteroids (EGA) observed since 1979 are reviewed, noting the addition of the Aten-type asteroids to the classifications. A total of 7 Apollo, 4 Amor, and 2 Aten asteroids were newly identified by Jan. 1981, resulting in a total of 60 known EGAs. Additional sightings of a fast-moving object of fifteenth magnitude which was observed on the 22nd and 23rd of August 1979 from Mt. Palomar, a Mars crosser asteroid observed in 1979, and a Venus crosser are noted. A systematic sky search is now in progress to detect the other EGAs.
