(144898) 2004 VD₁₇, provisional designation 2004 VD₁₇, is a sub-kilometer asteroid, classified as near-Earth object of the Apollo group once thought to have a low probability of impacting Earth on 4 May 2102.[3] It reached a Torino Scale rating of 2 and a Palermo Technical Impact Hazard Scale rating of -0.25.[3] With an observation arc of 17 years it is known that closest Earth approach will occur two days earlier on 2 May 2102 at a distance of about 5.5 million km.[1]

History

2004 VD₁₇ was discovered on 7 November 2004, by the NASA-funded LINEAR asteroid survey. The object is estimated by NASA's Near Earth Object Program Office to be 580 meters in diameter with an approximate mass of 2.6×10¹¹ kg.[5]

Being approximately 580 meters in diameter, if 2004 VD₁₇ were to impact land, it would create an impact crater about 10 kilometres wide and generate an earthquake of magnitude 7.4.[6]

Elevated risk estimate in 2006

From February to May 2006, 2004 VD₁₇ was listed with a Torino Scale impact risk value of 2, only the second asteroid in risk-monitoring history to be rated above value 1.[7] With an observation arc of 1511 days, it was estimated to have a 1 in 1320 chance of impacting on 4 May 2102.[3] The Torino rating was lowered to 1 after additional observations on 20 May 2006, and finally dropped to 0 on 17 October 2006.

2008 observations

As of 4 January 2008, the Sentry Risk Table assigned 2004 VD₁₇ a Torino value of 0 and an impact probability of 1 in 58.8 million for 4 May 2102.[5] This value was far below the background impact rate of objects this size. Further observations allowed it to be removed from the Sentry Risk Table on 14 February 2008.[8]

It will pass 0.021 AU (3,100,000 km; 2,000,000 mi) from the Earth on 1 May 2032, allowing a refinement to the orbit.[1]

Properties

It has a spectral type of E.[2] This suggests that the asteroid has a high albedo and is on the smaller size range for an object with an absolute magnitude of 18.8.

(144898) 2004 VD17 ist ein kleiner erdnaher Asteroid vom Apollo-Typ, der am 7. November 2004 durch die automatische Himmelsüberwachung LINEAR (Lincoln Near Earth Asteroid Research) entdeckt wurde. Aufgrund seiner optischen Helligkeit wird der Durchmesser des Asteroiden auf 500 bis 1.200 Meter geschätzt. Er gelangte 2006 in die Schlagzeilen der Boulevardpresse, da vorübergehend ein kleines Risiko eines Einschlags auf die Erde bestand.

(144898) 2004 VD17 — небольшой околоземный астероид из группы аполлонов, который характеризуется крайне вытянутой орбитой, из-за чего, в процессе своего движения вокруг Солнца, он пересекает помимо земной орбиты ещё и орбиты двух соседних планет: Венеры и Марса. Он был открыт 7 ноября 2004 года в рамках проекта по поиску астероидов LINEAR в обсерватории Сокорро.
