Asteroid 2007 TG422 Distance from Earth
The distance of Asteroid 2007 TG422 from Earth is currently 5,836,544,314 kilometers, equivalent to 39.014889 Astronomical Units. Light takes 5 hours, 24 minutes and 28.6162 seconds to travel from Asteroid 2007 TG422 and arrive to us.
The following chart shows the distance of Asteroid 2007 TG422 from Earth as a function of time. In the chart the distance data is measured in Astronomical Units and sampled with an interval of 1 day.
The value of the reported distance might be somewhat inaccurate around the times of closest approach for objects passing extremely close to Earth. The value of the distance of 2007 TG422 from Earth is also available as a real time updated value in the Live Position and Data Tracker.
Closest Approach of Asteroid 2007 TG422 to Earth
Between 1 January 2013 and 30 December 2100, the closest approach of Asteroid 2007 TG422 to Earth happens on Mon Nov 18 2013 at a distance of 35.547430 Astronomical Units, or 5,317,819,787 kilometers:
NOTE: values for the closest approach are computed with a sampling interval of 1 day.
Asteroid 2007 TG422 Brightness and Light Curve
The following chart is the predicted light curve (visual magnitude as a function of time) of Asteroid 2007 TG422, according to the most recent ephemerides data. Magnitude data is sampled with a 2 days interval and there might be inaccuracies for objects changing brightness very rapidly during the course of a few days. For comets there could be large discrepancies between the observed and predicted brightness because of their highly dynamic behaviour.
