Near Earth on Sunday, August 6, a large asteroid of 2023 OQ with a length of about 137 meters will fly by, NASA reports.
It is known that the asteroid will fly at a distance of 3.8 million kilometers from Earth at a speed of 76,752 km/h.
It is noteworthy that NASA considers asteroids approaching the Earth at a distance closer than 7.4 million km as a “potentially dangerous object”, and its size exceeds 150 m.
Asteroid 2023 OQ is not subject to these two parameters at the same time.
Recall that the NASA rover set a new record for oxygen production on Mars.
