Actually, no. That is a link to the current Sentry Close Approach page,
which no longer shows 2011 CA7. At at the moment only goes back to Feb 10.

As I posted here earlier, the 2011 CA7 close approach was at 0.3 LD, a
quarter of the way to the moon, and not on the same date as the fireball. 

It was at 19:28 UT on Feb 9, at a distance of over 97,000 km from the
earth's surface.

So what's the point?
