69-foot asteroid to come shockingly close to Earth; NASA clocks speed at scary 49897 kmph

NASA has warned that a huge 69-foot asteroid is speeding towards the planet today. Could there be a chance of impact?
Asteroids come in all shapes and sizes, with the largest being nearly 530 kilometers in diameter called Vesta! Others are smaller at around 100 feet and even less. Although NASA scientists estimate that an asteroid would have to be about 96 km wide to completely and utterly destroy life on Earth, smaller asteroids also have the potential to cause damage up to some extent.
