Heaven Body 2008 DG5 up to 700 meters will approach our planet at a safe distance at night from Wednesday to Thursday.
On the eve of June 5 to 6, a giant 2008 DG5 giant flies to the ground, which is not less than size in a modern aircraft.
According to NASA, the nearest point of his path was at 23:59 in Greenwich (2:59 in KYIV), reports Space.com.
The object of this space has a diameter of 320 to 700 meters – approximately the length of the Gereld R. Ford ship length, one of the largest in the world. It flies at a distance of 3.49 million kilometers from the ground – it’s 10 times more than the moon orbit.
The asteroid can be observed in telescopes as a bright point. Its flight is also available online for everyone.
The 2008 DG5 opened 16 years ago as part of the Catalina Sky Survey Project. Since then, NASA has been closely monitored by his movements. Fortunately, he does not threaten the planet or satellite of the world.
