Asteroid 1991 BA close to Earth sparks science alert
Scientists announced sighting of what may be the smallest closest asteroid, 1991 BA, passing about 106000 miles from Earth on January 17, per Spacewatch team notes. Astronomer David Rabinowitz said the object drew attention during the Persian Gulf war era. A Vatican security scare followed when a Fiat camper dressed as a tank was found outside St. Peter’s Square, towed away by police before Pope John Paul II’s address. An ANSA report later noted a missing TV prop camper from a German comedy troupe.
