RISK, NOT ALARM.

A potentially hazardous classification describes size and orbit geometry. It does not predict an impact.

SAFE in this window

No impact trajectory is shown for this sample week. Most plotted objects pass dozens to hundreds of lunar distances away.

HAZARDOUS classification

One NeoWs object, 660096 (1998 SL36), carries the PHA flag while passing about 155 lunar distances away.
