Notes : ! During this approach, 2008 TC3 entered the terrestrial atmosphere and fell on the ground in Soudan. * Approach at 12866 km from the center of the Earth, i.e. at 6495 km from the ground. ** 1991 VG may be a debris of an artificial satellite coming back to Earth. + Approach of the Moon at 0.0013 AU i.e. 195 000 km on March 27, 1995.
++ Approach of the Moon at 0.00053 AU i.e. 79 500 km on January 15, 2001. The first close approaches of the list above correspond to transits between the Earth and the Moon . The sizes are estimated using a mean albedo: the uncertainty may reach 50%.
