massive asteroid 2023 JK asteroid 2023 JD4 206 foot size speed 37141 km per hour coming near earth today more details
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory Tracks asteroids continuously. If an asteroid reaches a distance of less than 75 lakh kilometers from the Earth, then NASA issues an alert for it. This means that the asteroid may pose a threat to the Earth if it comes so close. NASA’s JPL has also issued an alert today about two big asteroids coming close to the Earth. The interesting thing is that both these asteroids are more than 120 feet large. The first of these is asteroid 2023 JK.
The size of Asteroid 2023 JK is 120 feet. If compared to the object, it is as big as a big airplane. It is moving towards Earth today. Its diameter is said to be around 64 meters. It can reach very close to the earth. According to JPL, when it reaches closest to the Earth, its distance from the Earth will be only 16 lakh kilometers, which is considered a very short distance. NASA has not released any information about Asteroid 2023 JK causing any harm to the Earth. The chances of it hitting the Earth are negligible.
Apart from this, Asteroid 2023 JD4 is also coming closer to the Earth today. This asteroid is said to be 206 feet in size. It is going to pass at a distance of just 3,100,000 kilometers from the Earth. This asteroid is also as big as a big aeroplane. Its speed is said to be 37141 kilometers per hour. NASA has also not released any information about it that it can hit the Earth. But it cannot be denied that asteroids can hit the Earth. If an asteroid larger than 150 feet hits the Earth, it can prove to be very destructive.
