Group 		2006 QV89

Asteroid 2006 QV89 was discovered on August 29, 2006 by the Catalina Sky Survey (CSS).
Object is too small (diameter of about 20—50 meters) to result in heavy damage on the ground (absolute magnitude > 25).

Number of original observations: 68
Arc : 2006 08 29 - 2006 09 08
Nominal rms: 0″.49 (136 residuals)

Possible collisions in: 2019





Year: 2019

Impact date: 2019 09 09.288 (UT)   Vimpact= 12.287 km/sec   Ψimpact = 45°.37  

dev/σ
Deviation from the nominal orbit parameter divided by the respective uncertainty.
Vimpact
The velocity of the asteroid relative to the Earth at the moment of impact.
Ψimpact
The impact angle is measured from the vertical axis that goes through the impact point. Thus, the impact angle is 0 degrees for a vertical impact.
rms
Root mean square for the derived impact orbit.
