How to camouflage a meteor

+0
−0

What requirements would a meteor have to satisfy, to approach Earth unrecognized until hitting the atmosphere and cause climatic changes after the impact?

  • The meteor should have at least a circumference of 500 meters at impact to cause something.
  • It might have to hit earth at land because at sea there would be tsunamis and mostly no climatic change.
  • The climatic changes should be an impact winter but if there are other ideas they are very welcome!
  • If camouflaging the meteor is naturally possible then i would prefer this way. If not we are at the actual technology level.

Edits:

  • The Meteor should remain undiscovered until the discoverer has no time left to make his discovery public before the impact.
