It appears that near April Fools Day we had a couple of small rocks pass inside 1/4 LD.
First rock 2022 GC, missed by 0.147825LD on March 31 2022, 20:47:12. When brightest (14.3), it was below my horizon and had not been discovered yet.
Then 2022 GQ flew by 0.12879LD on April 1 2022, 11:58:17CDT. Again, not yet discovered (inside our orbit). and when outside, too faint for me.
These close pass distances were topo for my location.
These rocks from space, once again show we can get clipped without even knowing it. Cool stuff.
