November 9th, 2011  (0.85 Lunar distances)  400 meter Asteroid 2005 YU55

Although classified as a potentially hazardous object, 2005 YU55 poses no threat of an Earth collision over at least the next 100 years. However, this will be the closest approach to date by an object this large that we know about in advance and an event of this type will not happen again until 2028
