Rocks Nobody Has Confirmed Screensaver

The Rocks Nobody Has Confirmed screensaver shows unconfirmed near-Earth object candidates from JPL Scout, key-less. Scout works the queue of things a survey picked up in the last few nights that have not yet been designated. The NEO score is the probability it is a near-Earth object at all, and the observation count beside it is how much evidence that judgement rests on — a score of 100 from six observations is a fast guess, not a certainty. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
