Next 30 June 2023, anniversary of the 1908 Tunguska event, will be internationally celebrated as the “Asteroid Day“: it is “a global awareness movement where people from around the world come together to learn about asteroids and what we can do to protect our planet, our families, communities, and future generations“. This is the ninth edition, after the first one in 2015 and the very successful 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 editions. More and more exciting events are coming. In December 2016 the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution A/RES/71/90, declaring 30 June International Asteroid Day.
To celebrate the 2023 edition of Asteroid Day, marking its 9th Anniversary, the Virtual Telescope Project, the leading facility in the world sharing live, online the most spectacular near-Earth asteroids and their close encounters with our home planet, will officially offer you a live view of the potentially hazardous asteroid 2019 LH5, safely coming relatively close to the Earth.
