Thread's been sleeping for a while, so here's an object to wake it up.

2010 TM, discovered Oct 2 has a cumulative Palermo Scale rating of -2.58, with PS -2.75 for an impact on Nov 7 of next year. (1 in 22.7 million impact odds). The arc is only 1.0715 days (12 obs) so this is super preliminary. There are currently 169 potential impacts between 2011 and 2108. It's a biggie, estimated at 411 meters. It is currently 3rd in risk on the JPL Sentry risk page (pushing 2010 RF12 to 12th place).

http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/risk/

It does not show in the NEODyS database at all.

MW

Edit 10/4 AM: With this morning's update, 2010 TM has been added to the NEODyS database, but not the risk list using the same 12 observations.

Edit2&3 10/4 PM: another update and 2010 TM has been added to the NEODyS risk page, with a PS of -4.05 on Nov 6, 2011 and 16 other impacts through 2077. It is 18th on the current risk list at NEODyS. (The NEODyS list is ranked by max PS, whereas JPL Sentry is ranked by cumulative PS).

Re: Newly Discovered PHA's

Just to show how poorly the orbit is known from the short arc, here's the parameter block from JPL:

Desc. node-Earth separation -0.16704 AU

Orbital period 464.287 days



I'll pick out a few to drive home the point :) (Using JPL calcs)
a (semimajor axis) 1.17 +/- 0.88 AU (0.29 to 2.05 AU)
q (perihelion) 0.83 +/-0.48 AU (0.35-1.31 AU)
i (inclination) 13.0 +/-4.7 deg (8.3- 17.7 deg)
P (Period) 464 +/- 525 d (!!!!!), 1.27 +/- 1.44 Y (!!!!)
Q (aphelion) 1.5 +/- 1.1 AU (0.4 to 2,6 AU)

The poorly known orbit is the only reason there's any risk at all, and explains the disparity between the JPL and NEODyS risk guesses...

"Why are the results published by NEODyS not the same as those published by Sentry?
The differences between the two systems are generally not substantial, and in some sense they are reassuring. Independent systems using different software and theoretical approaches are not expected to produce the same results from statistical searches. Experience has shown that there is excellent agreement between the two systems for the more serious potential collision detections.
One of the differences between the two systems stems from different approaches to computing the impact probability. This computation is rough by its very nature, and different techniques may be used; impact probabilities different by a factor of ten or so are not extraordinary.

Another important variation is that Sentry uses a different sampling strategy, one that should detect nearly all potential impacts with probability greater than 10-8 (1 in 100 million), and does not expend much effort pursuing less likely cases, although it may find some anyway. In any case, nothing with impact probability below 10-10 (1 in 10 billion) is published by Sentry. In contrast, NEODyS may not detect as many potential impacts at probabilities below 10-6 (1 in 1 million), but in certain cases it can detect very low probability events that Sentry does not."

:D Yeah, that's about how much we can say with certainty!

A single observation could remove it from the risk page entirely, or make it an object worth watching (due to it's size).

As of this moment, it has been unobserved for nearly 3 days, with no new data reported.

Re: Newly Discovered PHA's

2010 TM only 3 more observations, but the arc is now 3.9698 days so the orbit is much better defined. EMoid came way down (orbit is much closer to earth) but risk decreased; from JPL cumulative PS -4.16 from 78 impacts from 2022-2110, max -4.69 on June 27, 2046 (1 in 53 million impact odds).

Re: Newly Discovered PHA's

Yes, so sorry :) The more refined orbit has shifted the descending node (when the orbit crosses the plane of the earth's orbit) of closest approach from early November, to now June 27 to July 3 over the years...

I told you the earlier orbit was a WAG! :lol:

Re: Newly Discovered PHA's

Only 4 more observations (19 total), but a lengthening arc, now 5.0365 days. Increased risk, for fewer potential impacts (now 69 between 2023 and 2110 JPL Sentry). Sentry cumulative PS -3.28. Highest PS impact 6/28/2027 PS -3.79 (NEODyS PS -3.98). Sentry ups H to 19.1 (517m dia), NEODyS 19.3 (460m).

Re: Newly Discovered PHA's

More obs, higher risk. I'm going to split 2010 TM into it's own thread, as it's cluttering up this one with the level of detail only a few of us appreciate.

26 observations over 6.0688 days. Sentry cumulative PS -3.08; Max -3.52 (1 in 6 million impact chance) on 6/29/2027. 43 possible impacts between 2025 and 2110. NEODyS risk is now about the same for that date, PS -3.53. NEODyS has 12 possible impacts between 2027 and 2090, up from 5 yesterday. Estimates size down to 496 m diameter.

29 obs over 6.9984 days. Slight risk increase. JPL Sentry cumulative PS -2. 50 potential impacts 2025-2110. Highest risk events 6/28 2027 (Sentry PS -3.42, NEODyS -3.52), 2042 (Sentry -3.75, NEODyS -3.78), 2044 (Sentry -3.77, NEODyS -4.16)

Re: Somewhat Risky Asteroid 2010 TM, Oct 2010

Monday update, now 31 obs over 7.991 days. Risk about the same, Senty cumulative PS -2.94 for 49 VI's between 2025 and 2110. A shift however in the highest risk ones, now 2044 ranks highest (Sentry PS -3.50, NEODys -5.03), 2042 next (Sentry -3.66, NEODyS -3.67), then 2027 (Sentry -3.73, NEODyS -4.00), then 2040 (Sentry -3.89, NEODyS -4.18).

:!: :!: :!: Ding Ding Ding ******** Ding Ding Ding****** :!: :!: :!: 2004 BV1= 2010 TM

Big news on the 2010 TM 2010 front.

It has been identified as 2004 BV1. So now there were 44 observations in 2004, but the arc is extended to about 6.5 years with the 31 from 2010.

That data is being assimilated, there should be a much more refined orbit released shortly with new elements and new risk estimates.

based on the new NEODyS page for 2004 BV1, would not be surprised if 2004 BV1/2010 TM vanished from the risk pages altogether.... It's not listed on the NEODyS risk page. It may take some time to assimilate the data.

2010 TM still shows on the Sentry risk page, while 2004 BV1 does not, the risk page apparently is treating them as two separate objects, yet the JPL small body data base has combined them. For example, the 2010 TM risk page still only shows 31 observations over a 7.9991 day arc, yet the SBDB page shows 2004 BV1=2010 TM with 76 obs over 6.73 years (The total of the 2004 BV1 and 2010 TM obs and arc)

From NEODyS (2010 TM no longer exists in their database) the combined data set (Now 2004 BV1 only) has zero risk, yet the Sentry risk page still treats 2010 TM as a separate object.

I beez confused... :? ????

Historical note, from the Sentry removed objects list, with object and date removed...
