Orbits of Potentially Hazardous Asteroids

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Over a thousand Potentially Hazardous Asteroids, or PHAs, have been identified. These objects are at least 140 meters across and have orbits that bring them close to Earth. While the chance of an impact in any given year is low, cataloging their orbits helps us understand potential future risks.
