CNEOS predicts that the newly discovered NEO 2023 HH will make a close approach on  2023-Apr-18 12:49±00:02 UT at a distance of 0.00096 AU while traveling at 10.62 km/sec. H=28.9, the size is 4.5 m - 10.0 m, 'Rarity'=0, Condition Code=7, with a 1 day observation arc. The Earth MOID=8.46484E-5 AU. This NEO was first observed at Pan-STARRS 2, Haleakala on 2023-04-16.

Using MPC's elements for 2023 Apr 17 0000 UT, ST4v predicts that close approach will occur (to the nearest hour) on 2023 Apr 18 0900 EDT at 16.4 magnitude traveling through Sagittarius at 14.4"/sec in daylight from Columbus, Ohio. This object is predicted to reach a peak brightness of 15.8 magnitude on 2023 Apr 18 1800 EDT at 182.1k km in Lupus moving at 547.7"/min in twilight from Columbus, Ohio. 

Here's the Object Info dialog for this object:     

This was one of 30 NEOs added to the MPC's list of objects today! 

Good hunting,
