Track near-Earth asteroid approaches, estimated diameters, relative velocities, close approach miss distances, and hazard flags from the NASA Near Earth Object program.
Features
- Scrapes the official NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Near Earth Object Web Service (NeoWs).
- Tracks upcoming asteroid close approaches within a 1 to 7 day observation window.
- Gathers estimated minimum and maximum physical diameters in kilometers.
- Captures relative encounter velocities in kilometers per hour and exact miss distances.
- Filters asteroids by NASA potential hazard classification.
- Operates via public NASA endpoints with zero proxy overhead.
- Delivers clean structured records formatted for export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or astronomy dashboards.
Input parameters
- Days Range Window: Number of observation days to query (1 to 7 days). Default is 3.
- Potentially Hazardous Only: Boolean flag to restrict results solely to hazardous bodies. Default is false.
Output dataset fields
Each dataset record contains:
- neoId: Unique NASA Near Earth Object reference identifier.
- name: Astronomical catalog name (such as (2026 AB) or 99942 Apophis).
- closeApproachDate: Calendar date of closest orbital approach.
- isPotentiallyHazardous: Boolean indicator flagging potential planetary hazard.
- absoluteMagnitudeH: Intrinsic visual magnitude brightness.
- estimatedDiameterMinKm: Estimated lower bound diameter in kilometers.
- estimatedDiameterMaxKm: Estimated upper bound diameter in kilometers.
- relativeVelocityKmh: Encounter velocity relative to Earth in km/h.
- missDistanceKm: Minimum distance between Earth and asteroid center in kilometers.
- orbitingBody: Celestial body being passed (Earth).
- nasaJplUrl: Direct link to the JPL Small-Body Database orbital viewer.
- scrapedAt: UTC timestamp when the data was extracted.
Use cases
- Astronomy education: Power interactive celestial trackers and classroom orbital models.
- Science journalism: Retrieve verified flyby distances and sizes when asteroids pass Earth.
- Planetary defense research: Compile orbital trajectory telemetry for scientific catalogs.
