Asteroid 2023 HV5 to come as close to Earth as the Moon! NASA issues alert

[ad_1] Whenever an asteroid's orbit brings it near a planet, the planet's gravitational pull can sometimes force it to go astray. When these space rocks come near Earth for close approach, most of them burn up in the atmosphere itself without causing any harm to the planet. However due to the potential risk, it is extremely important to observe and track these distant objects in the sky, for which NASA, ESA and other space agencies have already set up institutions.Through these space monitoring platforms, a warning has been issued against an asteroid that is expected to make its closest approach to Earth soon. Asteroid 2023 HV5The asteroid, given the designation of Asteroid 2023 HV5, will make its closest approach to Earth tomorrow, May 3, at a distance of just 435,000 kilometers, which...

This asteroid will come alarmingly close to Earth! NASA clocks it at 32152 kmph

[ad_1] A 100-feet wide asteroid just passed Earth, but there is another space rock on the way and it is set to make quite a scary encounter with our planet. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has issued an alert about a small yet dangerous asteroid speeding towards Earth.NASA has issued an alert as Asteroid 2023 HV5, which is about 41 feet wide - the size of a bus - is expected to come very close to Earth on May 3. According to NASA's JPL, any asteroid that approaches within 4.6 million miles or 7.5 million kilometers of Earth is considered potentially hazardous, and an alert is issued. Whether this asteroid poses a danger to Earth or not is a question that NASA has answered, and here's what it has to say.
