What is the best time to see the asteroid coming on monday in Beijing, China?

Question

The name of the asteroid is 2004XP14.

Answer 1

"Near close approach around 4h44m UT July 3, this 600-meter/yard diameter asteroid

Passes only 268,873 miles from the Earth, only 1.1 times the distance to the moon away.

Peaking at visual magnitude 11.1 four hours later, users of telescopes of 6 inches (15cm)

or larger can enjoy observing a rare celestial treat. At time of close approach, 2004 XP14

races along at 8.323 degrees per hour, or a mean lunar diameter every four minutes!

Such a rapid speed results in direct motion becoming visible, second by second. Just

as naked eye Earth satellites are seen crossing the sky, 2004 XP14 will both amaze and

challenge the observer, both visually and those taking images."
