Huge Asteroid will Miss Earth

asteroid-flyby

CAPE CANAVERAL, FL- An asteroid as big as a skyscraper will pass within nearly 2 million miles of Earth on Friday. NASA says three smaller asteroids also will miss Earth Friday, with another two on Saturday.  Scientists say there’s no chance of it hitting earth, saying it will pass seven times the distance from Earth to the moon.  The asteroid was first spotted back in 2008

The good news is, we won’t see the asteroid in our solar system again until 2032 –and even then it will be around 45 million miles from earth.
