All asteroids are monitored by the European Space Agency’s Coordination Center for Near-Earth Objects and NASA’s Center for Object Studies.
About 30 thousand potentially dangerous asteroids are approaching the Earth. They are located 45 million km from the orbital path of the planet. This was reported by NASA.
It was mentioned that in the event of a collision of a space object with our planet, it could threaten a global disaster. Therefore, asteroids are monitored by several international agencies – NEOCC and CNEOS.
50 asteroids are over 140m in diameter, a space rock that size could destroy a city. An asteroid is more than a km in diameter, which can destroy a larger area in a single collision.
It was previously reported that the Webb telescope captured a picture of two rare stars orbiting each other in a wild nod.
