Asteroid flyby 2026 VA completed its closest approach to Earth at 3.2 lunar distances in early November 2, 2026, with under 24 hours of advance warning. The Chelyabinsk-class rock's MOID of 0.0015 AU illustrates why small asteroids in solar blind spots remain nearly undetectable until already close, a gap that NEO Surveyor aims to fix. — Tech Times
