NASA has found and is tracking about 95 percent of the largest objects flying near Earth, those that are .62 miles or larger in diameter.

I thought they wrote 62 miles! How about using 0.62? My old eyes didn't catch that tiny decimal point in the original article.

That’s why it’s good practice to put a leading zero before a decimal point, as you did.
