American NASA has announced that A huge asteroid with a length of 15-storey building will fly around the ground in the coming days. According to experts by was supposed to spend our planet just after the month. , although they stated that At present, there is no risk if it entered the atmosphere, it would cause considerable material damage.
Will fly over a few days
NASA Space Agency alerted to the asteroid 2025 OW whose size resembles the height of the slanted tower in Pisa. Astronomers They indicated that a space object with a length of approximately 210 meters should fly on Monday, July 28, at a distance of 632,000 kilometers from the ground.
NASA ranks 2025 OW in the category of small to medium -sized asteroids, which means that It is not a “destroyer of planets” that can cause extinction on earth. This type of asteroid usually explodes in an atmosphere and does not reach the earth’s surface. The reason is the huge temperature and pressure that the rock is exposed to when entering the air of our planet at high speed.

Astronomers based on the data obtained added that asteroid 2025 OW should not cause any damage. However, experts pointed out that if a similar object would have reached the atmosphere above the inhabited area, could lead to considerable material damage including breakage of windows or destruction of roofs of buildings.
2025 OW I one of five asteroids that will approach the ground next week. It is assumed that Two other objects approximately 200 meters long fly around our planet at a distance of more than a million kilometers. Astronomers but worried about another colossus that should approach the ground in April 2029. Goes o Asteroid 99942 Apophis with a height of approximately 1100 meters, which should only bypass our planet at a distance of 32 thousand kilometers.
As for the monitoring of potentially dangerous asteroids, NASA calculations are usually correct. Center for Research of Nearby Objects (CNEOS), which is under the administration of this Space Agency, It uses ground telescopes and planetary radar systems such as Goldstone Solar System Radar to detect. Tie measure the position, speed and clarity of the asteroid in order to determine its path and size.
Although NASA has the majority of asteroids under control, scientists from Brazil, French and Italy have pointed out the dangerous objects approaching our planet from the dead point. warned that Venus covers the view of many close -up asteroids. Found that Many of them move synchronized with its orbit and therefore it is very difficult to see them.
