After 34 years, potentially dangerous asteroid 349507 (2008 QY) is approaching Earth again. This information is listed on NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies website. This object was first discovered by astronomers in 1989. Should we wait for the end of the world? It’s still quite early.
The diameter of the asteroid can reach 1.2 kilometers. It refers to asteroids that pass through Earth’s orbit. However, this does not always mean a collision with a planet. Celestial objects are considered dangerous if they cross the orbit at a distance of 7.5 million km, and this object will reach 6.3 million km.
The closest approach to asteroid 2008 QY will occur on October 3, 2023 at 23:39 Moscow time.
We previously mentioned that India was the first country to land a spacecraft on the south pole of the Moon.
