2007 WD5
2007 WD 5 is an Apollo asteroid some 50 m (160 ft) in diameter [2] and a Mars-crosser asteroid first observed on November 20, 2007, by Andrea Boattini of the Catalina Sky Survey . Early observations of 2007 WD 5 caused excitement amongst the scientific community when it was estimated as having as high as a 1 in 25 chance of colliding with Mars on January 30, 2008. [6] However, by January 9, 2008, additional observations allowed NASA's Near Earth Object Program (NEOP) to reduce the uncertainty region resulting in only a 1-in-10,000 chance of impact. [7] 2007 WD 5 most likely passed Mars at a distance of 6.5 Mars radii. Due to this relatively small distance and the uncertainty level of the prior observations, the gravitational effects of Mars on its trajectory are unknown and, according to Steven Chesley of NASA 's Jet Propulsion Laboratory Near-Earth Object program, 2007 WD 5 is currently considered 'lost' (see lost asteroids ).
