Today Travelers in the night take you to discuss about a pair of possibly related comets pass unusually close to Earth and a gentle method of causing an asteroid to miss planet Earth.

We may be able to learn about the possibilities of life on Mars by studying land forms on the Tibetan Plateau here on Earth. And what motivates asteroid hunters? Large dangerous asteroids are still out there to find.
Finally found after 75 years! Asteroid 878 Mildred! Also the Catalina Sky Survey has a newly refurbished 40″ robotic telescope that is only used for follow-up observations so that the venerable 30″ & 60″ can look for new targets.
Today story is about the discovery of 2016 DP that formed after two large asteroid collided in asteroid belt. And also Enceladus Ocean. More at #365DayOfAstro
Asteroids are part of our environment and this space rocks constantly have close approaches with Earth & there is increasing evidence that other bodies in our solar system have oceans of salty liquid water in contact with warm rock layers. Could such biodiversity be happening elsewhere?
It’s time for @AwesomeAstroPod December skyguide! Also we have discussion about what might have happened to the Planet Theia after it hit the Earth, what Lucy saw on its first asteroid encounter, the mystery of a new double crater on the Moon and what the first images from the Elucid telescope show.
Today’s Travelers in the night goes back in time to tell a story about the discovery of 21 potential hazardous asteroids and Aten asteroids.
The discovery of asteroids, 2016 BA15, the scarier 2016 BY14, and 2013 TX68 which orbit is not well known.
Greg Leonard from Catalina Sky Survey team finds an interesting potentially hazardous asteroid and The Cosmic Campground as the last places where one can experience the natural night sky in the lower 48.
Today Travelers in the Night will discuss about a mysterious piece of space hardware comes back to Earth and Aten asteroids that spend most of their time inside the Earth’s orbit.
