Greetings,

Near Earth Asteroid Eros 433 is making it's closest approach to our planet at this time. At approximately 17 million miles from Earth, Eros is at it's brightest from Jan. 25th through Feb. 13th. It may be seen using binoculars or a telescope and is located near the Constellations Leo, Hydra (the largest Constellation in the sky), and Sexton. Enjoy!
Swan
