Actually, the distance between two celestial bodies in the solar system remains fixed according to their orbit. But the direction of asteroids and meteorites changes many times, and the reason for this is the presence of the gravity of a big planet more than its gravity. They can change their direction under the influence of gravity. When an asteroid comes closer than 75 lakh kilometers to the Earth, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Issues alert. Even today NASA has issued an alert for 2 asteroids. One of these rocks is going to come close to the Earth today, while the other is going to reach the Earth in the next 24 hours. Let us know what NASA says about the danger they may pose.
Asteroid 2023 NP (asteroid 2023 NP) NASA has issued an alert today. This is a 65 feet asteroid which is moving towards the Earth today. Its size is said to be as much as a big house. This asteroid is said to belong to the Aten group. It is going to come at a distance of about 5,000,000 kilometers from the Earth. Its speed is 29660 kilometers per hour.
It was named after the asteroid 2062 Aten. The first asteroid of this group was seen on January 7, 1976. It is moving towards the earth at the speed of lightning and is going to pass very close today. However, NASA has not released any collision information for this. Asteroid 2023 NY(asteroid 2023 NY) has also been issued by NASA. This is a 45 feet asteroid which is going to pass near the Earth in the next 24 hours. It is going to come to about 44.2 lakh kilometers of the earth. Although it is also quite small in size. NASA has not released any collision information for this either.
NASA constantly keeps an eye on asteroids, and space scientists are also studying them. Scientists believe that they are made of the same material from which our entire solar system is made, hence studying them can reveal big secrets. These rocky pieces, which have been in existence for 4.6 billion years, sometimes come so close to the Earth that there is a danger of their collision. Meteorites are also said to be small pieces of these, which often fall on the earth.
