Analysis Summary:

The article appears mostly accurate based on the provided sources. The claim about the asteroid's peanut shape and dimensions is generally supported, although specific measurements are not universally confirmed. The article presents the information in a relatively neutral manner, with minimal observable bias.

Detailed Analysis:

• Claim:** "This asteroid is bigger than scientists anticipated, about 5 miles long and 2 miles wide at its widest point — resembling a deformed peanut."
  • Verification Source #1: Supports the idea of an "extremely irregular and quite elongated" shape, which aligns with the "deformed peanut" description. However, it doesn't provide specific dimensions.
  • Verification Source #2: Mentions computer models of an asteroid's "peanut shape," lending credence to the shape description, although it doesn't provide dimensions or confirm it's the same asteroid.
  • Verification Source #3, #4, and #5: Fail to cover this specific claim.
  • Internal Knowledge: Without further sources, I cannot definitively confirm the exact dimensions (5 miles long and 2 miles wide).

Supporting Evidence/Contradictions:

• Verification Source #1: Supports the "irregular and quite elongated" shape, aligning with the "deformed peanut" description.
• Verification Source #2: Supports the "peanut shape" description of an asteroid.
• The exact dimensions (5 miles long and 2 miles wide) are not explicitly confirmed by the provided sources. This is a limitation.
