Space Weather News for Jan. 21, 2015

Early next week, a large asteroid named 2004 BL86 will fly past the
Earth-Moon system.  There's no danger of a collision, but NASA radars will
be monitoring the mountain-sized space rock as it passes by only 745,000
miles away. Amateur astronomers can watch the flyby, too. Glowing like a
9th magnitude star, 2004 BL86 will be an easy target for backyard
telescopes on the night of closest approach, Jan. 26-27.  Check
