O! NEOs Close Approach Mid June 2011 Update 11JUN2011

UPDATE!!!

N3Os (Near Earth Objects) Close Approach June 13-16 2011 Green Fireballs Projected
Cameras/Watchers Alert!
Earth will be heading into another period of green fireballs beginning
30MAY2011-17JUL2011 (main activity centered around 1JUN-6JUN and 13JUN-16JUN2011 unless more previously undiscovered NEOs pop up) with events just prior to or just after the scheduled passings of (2009 BD)(2011 KE15), (2011 KV15), (2011 KP16) ,(2011 LT17), (2004 LO2)  and debris associated with them or other yet undiscovered NEOs. Meteors produced from these events are called sporadics (SPOs) and are not associated with any known meteor shower.
I expect several more NEOs to be discovered yet for June/July.  Get out and enjoy some night sky during this period and perhaps you may see ;O! , keep looking up!
