Near miss asteroid?

[jason.p]

Heads up (or down!) Asteroid BL86 is due to pass at 1.2 million miles on 26th Jan. Estimated size 500 to 1000m diam.

Will hit mag 9 too. Any finder charts?

You can add it in Stellarium like you would a comet but by choosing "Asteroids" and the appropriate list.

I just did that and if it is 2004BL86 it will be very low down in the south at it's highest point about midnight.
