According to NASA, the asteroid will pass by Earth at a distance of about 936,000 miles, which is quite close in space.

It’s the closest the asteroid, named 2024 MT-1, will go to Earth in its orbit around the sun, but life on Earth is not in danger.

2024 MT-1 is slightly over 79 meters wide and completes a full circle of the sun in around 1.2 years. For comparison, the tower of Westminster Abbey is roughly 68 meters high.

An asteroid is a relatively small rock composed primarily of stony, metallic, and dusty components that orbits the sun.

aroundThe majority of them revolve about the main asteroid belt, which lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. However, others, like 2024 MT-1, take trajectories that circle around the inner solar system.

OfficeThe Planetary Defense office of NASA keeps an eye out for asteroids and meteors that can endanger life as we know it.
Around 100 tons of dust and sand-sized particles are estimated to hit Earth every day by NASA, which recorded five tiny asteroids in June that passed closer to Earth than the moon.
