Near-Earth asteroid approaches
0.1 credits / callLists near-Earth asteroids with close approaches in a given date window of up to 7 days. For each asteroid, it reports the estimated diameter, approach date, miss distance, relative velocity, and whether the object is classified as potentially hazardous. Use this for factual orbital data, not personal-safety assessments.
Use when
You want to know which asteroids pass near Earth in a date window and how close they come.
Not for
