Earth will be in danger if this object comes close.
In February 2013, world astronomers were alarmed by the discovery of asteroid 2012 DA14.
But more terrifying, while 2012 DA14 took decades to fly past Earth, another asteroid rushed straight towards our planet.
On February 15, 2013, an asteroid named Chelyabinsk with a diameter of 19 meters exploded after entering the atmosphere over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk.
Professor of Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara (USA) – PhD. “It looks like there were two completely independent asteroids on their way to Earth on that observation date (February 2013).”
The issue of Earth’s security is becoming more and more urgent, the task of protecting this planet is even more important.
Scientists cannot accurately predict but can only give relative information about the time and direction of the meteorite hitting the Earth.
Professor Lubin was horrified at the thought of nuclear warehouses around the world exploding simultaneously after a collision:“It is necessary to assess the real danger of the giant asteroids Apophis and Bennu as extremely serious.
Although the two giant asteroids are not expected to hit Earth, no one knows if they will change orbits.
