NASA Got Back To Me With Update on Asteroid '2009 JF1'

The GREAT news is it looks like 2009 JF1 will not impact earth any time soon.

In early February some observations from G96 and E12 from 2009 were remeasured using Gaia-DR2 as reference catalog. You can find them here:
https://www.minorplanetcenter.net/mpec/K22/K22C75.html

The new measurements and their associated uncertainties resulted in a lower impact probability, which doesn't meet the default constraints of the main Sentry table.
You'll find it if you select "Use Unconstrained Settings". Or just go directly here: https://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/sentry/details.html#?des=2009%20JF1
