   ASTEROID FLYBY: NASA radars are monitoring 2005 YU55, an asteroid the size of   
   an aircraft carrier, as it heads for a Nov. 8th flyby of the Earth-Moon   
   system. There is no danger to our planet. At closest approach on Tuesday at   
   3:28 pm PST (23:28 UT), the space rock will be 324,600 kilometers away.   
   Nevertheless, professional astronomers are eagerly anticipating the flyby as   
   the asteroid presents an exceptionally strong radar target.  Even amateur   
   astronomers might be able to photograph it during the hours around closest   
   approach.  Check http://spaceweather.com for observing tips and more   
   information.
