Near Earth Object is a python program that can inspect and query close approaches of near-Earth objects – moments in the past (or future) at which an asteroid- or comet-like object in space pass quite close to Earth. It reads 200 years of data from CSV and JSON files into Python models, and build a database capable of answering questions such as "when does Halley's comet pass by Earth?" and "what are the next ten close approaches of big, hazardous asteroids whose orbit takes them exceptionally close to Earth?"
