Halloween asteroid

Halloween, according to some, is a time to be afraid, but no one need fear asteroid 2015 TB145, a 400 m-class near-Earth object (NEO) that will pass safely by at 17:00 GMT (18:00 CET) on 31 October.

This animated image shows the movement of asteroid 2015 TB145 (the small, moving dot at centre) as seen by the 1 m-diameter telescope at ESA’s Optical Ground Station at the Teide Observatory, Tenerife, Canary Islands.
