AND asteroid the size of a truck will pass “close” to Earth on the same Thursday POT will keep a close eye on him.

2023 boo It has an approximate size of 3.5 to 8.5 meters wide and POT predicts it will pass just 3,600 kilometers over the southern tip of South America in the afternoon.

Before meeting with Earthorbit asteroid around the Sun was similar to ours with 359 days to complete it.
