The American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) continues to detect large-scale celestial objects in advance and issue various warnings.
NASA detects objects exceeding 150 meters in size and within a maximum distance of 7.5 million kilometers from Earth. “potential danger” accepts as.
A MASSIVE METOTAL UNDER EXAMINATION
The object in question passed within 17 million kilometers of Earth at the beginning of February. This close pass allowed NASA to take a closer look at the meteorite.
The object is about 500 meters long and roughly 150 meters thick. Scientists say that 2011 AG5 resembles a giant skyscraper.
The meteorite was first discovered in 2011. At that time, NASA researchers thought that the object had a high probability of hitting the Earth.
The analyzes revealed that the probability of the object hitting the Earth is very low.
Astronomers also more precisely determined the path the object took as it orbited the Sun.
Accordingly, it takes roughly 621 days for the object to complete this orbit. The strange object will make its next close pass to Earth in 2040.
