NASA is continuously studying celestial bodies under space missions. Study of asteroids is also a mission in these missions of NASA. According to the space agency, the Earth was formed 4.5 billion years ago. But at the time of Earth's formation, some rocks are said to have been scattered in the solar system, which have been named asteroids. These asteroids are said to be formed by explosions that occurred during the formation of planets that continuously revolve around the Sun. In such a situation, while rotating, they always move in the direction of the Earth. When they start coming too close to the Earth, NASA tracks them and issues alerts for them. Today NASA has issued an alert for an asteroid the size of a stadium, which can bring great danger to the Earth. Let us know about it.

Space agency NASA has issued an alert for 2 asteroids today. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) does tracking for asteroids. According to JPL, two rocky pieces are coming towards the Earth on August 4. One of these is Asteroid 620082 (2014 QL433) which is moving towards Earth today. There is a 1200 feet rocky piece. Its size is very large, which is as much as a football stadium. It will pass close to the Earth for a distance of 5,350,000 kilometers.

Asteroid 620082 (2014 QL433) is a rock that takes 1110 days to revolve around the Sun. According to Space Reference, it was discovered on August 29, 2014. Earlier it was seen on 23 July 2020. If it passes close to the Earth today, its next encounter with the Earth will be on August 12, 2026. Its size is very large and if it comes towards the earth it can cause great destruction. It is moving towards the earth at a speed of 74,246 kilometers per hour.

Along with this, another asteroid is aiming towards the Earth today. Its name is Asteroid 2023 OR5. This is a 95 feet long piece of rock. This asteroid, the size of an airplane, is going to come as close to the Earth as 2,850,000 kilometers. However, NASA has not yet released any information about any asteroid falling on Earth. Apart from asteroids, sometimes meteorites also fall on the earth. Recently, there was news of a meteorite falling on a house in Hopewell, New Jersey, USA. According to the report, it was said to be a piece of meteorite. The weight of this rock piece was said to be around 1.8 kg. The remaining part of those meteors which do not burn completely falls on the Earth. Similarly, asteroids can also fall on the Earth, which is quite likely.
