Pictures of Near-Miss Asteroid

Here's TU24.. It will pass "near by" today about 40% further out than the moon. That's pretty close in solar system terms, but I vaguely remember hearing of one that comes closer than the moon. Still there is no chance of this hitting us anytime, unless some evil scientist fires a freaking shark mounted laser at it and changes it's orbit....
