Washington: The whole world is in a panic due to the coronavirus crisis. A big disaster is going to come from the sky. The space agency NASA has identified an Asteroid that is moving towards the Earth at a high speed. The agency said in its alert that one, about half a kilometre bigger asteroid, is coming fast towards the earth. Its speed is about 5.2 kilometres per second.
According to the report of the Daily Star, this meteor body will enter the Earth's orbit on 6 June. This meteorite body is larger than the Empire State Building of America. NASA has named this meteorite rock rock-163348 (2002 NN4) and it is feared that it will pass very close to the Earth's surface on 6 June. Its possible length is 250–570 m and width is 135 m. This meteorite body passing through the Sun is entering the Earth's orbit. On May 21, too, a 1.5 km large meteorite had passed close to the Earth.
Scientists say that this meteorite is not likely to hit the earth, but it is necessary to keep an eye on it because sometimes due to gravity, such meteorites enter the earth's atmosphere at the last moment. According to NASA, the rock-163348 (2002 NN4) meteor body will pass near the Earth at 8:20 am on Sunday. A meteorite body so large from so close to the earth will pass only after this in 2024. Its speed is 5.2 km per second, ie this meteorite is coming at a speed of 11,200 miles per hour.
