The death of the mini-moon was recorded by astronomers

Astronomers have calculated that of the 10 million falling asteroids 2012 Land reached only 18 thousand. This is because most of the meteors exploding before reaching earth's surface. Space objects flying at great speed, the pressure increases within the breed, causing an explosion of a celestial body.

These processes frequently occur, they are well researched. In the fall of some of the cars on the planet, I see a flying ball of fire, colouring the sky in different shades. The celestial bodies are monitoring with a deployed network of automatic cameras.

Astronomers are interested in one of these cases, we are talking about a fireball spotted in the skies over Australia in 2016. Experts have suggested that it could be a race car, and one of the "temporary satellites" of our planet. Scientists led by planetary scientist Patrick Schober (University of Certina, Australia) thanks to the monitoring system can determine the trajectory and speed of a flying object. Low speed gave scientists the idea that before you get into the atmosphere, the object for some time was in orbit. Most likely, in this case "car" was a temporary mini-satellite.

Scientists hope that the telescope will be able to fix the speed and trajectory of objects approaching orbit.
