NASA’s Latest Close Pass by Bus-Sized Asteroid Highlights Gaps in Detecting Smaller Space Rocks
PASADENA, California, May 28, 2026, 16:09 PDT Asteroid 2026 JH2—about the size of a bus—zipped by Earth last week, missing by nearly a quarter the lunar distance. Astronomers had only just caught sight of it days before. According to data connected to NASA/JPL, the pass shaved by at approximately 56,000 miles out, or somewhere between 90,000 and 91,000 kilometers. (GEEKSPIN)
