massive asteroid 656 foot with 51000 km per hour speed heading towards earth 24 may nasa asteroid alert details

At a distance of millions of kilometers in space, a big threat is hovering over the earth these days. This danger is present in the form of asteroids which are moving towards the earth one after the other. Many asteroids have passed so close that even a slight change in their direction could have brought great havoc on the earth. Some rocky pieces have passed near the Earth by coming as close as the Moon. Today again an alert of an asteroid 2023 CL3 coming close to the Earth has been issued by NASA. It is moving towards the earth at a speed of thousands of kilometers per hour. Is it going to hit the earth? Let’s know what NASA has to say about this.

space agency nasa Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which continuously monitors asteroids, has issued an alert today for the passage of asteroid 2023 CL3 near the Earth. This asteroid is being told of 656 feet, which is a huge size. NASA says that an asteroid larger than 150 feet can harm the Earth. In such a situation, scientists are on alert regarding 2023 CL3. If such a big asteroid will pass near the Earth, then it cannot be taken lightly.

Asteroid 2023 CL3 is included in the list of asteroids that can be a threat to the Earth. When this asteroid will be closest to the Earth, the distance between the two celestial bodies will be around 72 lakh kilometers. Its speed has been told as 51 thousand kilometers per hour. If it collides with the earth at such a high speed, then there can be a big catastrophe here. However, the probability of an asteroid hitting the Earth is said to be very low. Recently, NASA has not released any information like any asteroid hitting the earth directly.

Apart from asteroids, many times meteorites also fall on the earth. Recently there was news of a meteorite falling in a house in Hopewell, New Jersey, USA. According to the report, it was said to be a piece of meteorite. The weight of this rocky piece was said to be around 1.8 kg. Those meteors which do not burn completely, their remaining part falls on the earth. Similarly, asteroids can also fall on the earth, which is said to be a possibility.
