idk if I'd say this made us lucky, we were pretty lucky to begin with, since we had less than a 1% chance of hitting it, unless I'm reading this wrong

Luck wasnt involved. Thank superman

The asteroid's position was very close to the sun, so astronomers had to observe it when the sky was dark

If the asteroid was very close to the sun, how would they observe the asteroid while the sky was dark? The sun is stationary.
