Notes

  1. ↑ For a list of current Earth close approaches see NEO Earth Close Approaches
  2. ↑ Distance from the center of Earth to the center of the object. See the NASA/JPL Solar System Dynamics Glossary: Geocentric. Earth has a radius of approximately 6,400 km.

2015 AQ43 may have passed as close as 0.00012 AU (18,000 km; 11,000 mi) (0.05 Lunar Distances) from the Earth on January 15, 2010, but the nominal distance suggests it only passed 5 LD away.
