Tools
get_fireballs Get recent bolide and fireball events recorded by US government sensors. Returns impact energy, radiated energy, velocity, altitude, and geographic location for each event.
limit opt number Maximum number of fireball events to return (default 10, max 100). Try it
get_close_approaches Get near-Earth asteroid close approach events within 0.05 AU of Earth. Returns object name, approach date, miss distance, relative velocity, and diameter estimates.
limit opt number Maximum number of close approach records to return (default 10, max 50). Try it
get_neo_feed
required: start_date, end_date Get Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) passing by Earth for a given date range using the NASA NeoWs API. Returns asteroid names, sizes, velocities, miss distances, and hazard status.
start_date req string Start date in YYYY-MM-DD format (e.g. "2025-01-01"). end_date req string End date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Maximum 7-day range from start_date (e.g. "2025-01-07"). Try it
