[meteorite-list] To extend asteroid-surveillance near to suns direction ->Chelyabinsk meteoroid

[Thomas Kurtz]

Hello Ron, hi list,

the Chelyabinsk 15-17m meteoroid was coming just ~15° from suns direction.

Is there any space craft planned for incoming asteroid-surveillance near to the sun ?
(Earth as the point of view)
Which orbit would be the most effective to cover this space area ?
How many of those satellites are needed to cover most of this dangerous area ?
Which studies do already exist for such a mission ?
Who is working on realization ?

In the future, even if we would discover such an impactor few hours before entering the atmosphere (like TC3 asteroid in 2008), 
warnings to the people near impact side could prevent a lot of injuries.
(and create a new kind of super bolide tourism ;-)
