These celestial bodies come in various sizes and vary greatly, from as small as a dice to as large as a boulder similar in size to the moon.

This event is extremely rare, because Earth’s orbit intersects with the path of this asteroid, which formed in the early stages of the solar system.

This discovery is very exciting for scientists because it can improve understanding of the origin of the solar system.

These asteroids are named 488483 and 2020 DBS. Asteroid 488453 made close contact with Earth on June 12, 2023, and 2020 DB5 is expected to collide with Earth on June 15.

Asteroid 2020 DB5 is expected to move at 4,300,000 kilometers per hour when it passes Earth on June 15.

Another asteroid is moving at 34,000 kilometers per hour, and was last observed in 1995.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory tracks these asteroids and scientists have predicted that they will not be seen again until 2048.
