Asteroid bigger than two football fields whizzes past Earth

Asteroid, its size is wider than two American soccer fields, making a close flyby earth, but safe, on Thursday, August 4. Asteroids are expected to enlarge the earth at 12:23 AM ET (9.53 AM Ist), reports.

Asteroid is a rocky object that orbits the sun like a planet. However, its size is significantly smaller. Astronomer estimates the size of the asteroid based on how bright they appear in the sky. Because of uncertainty, astronomers often provide a range for estimated size for asteroids.
Astronomers in the US Nasa Space Agency found asteroids, named 2022 OE2, on July 26. According to estimates, the space is between 557 and 1,246 feet (170 to 380 meters) wide, which is as wide as two fields of American soccer or three American Liberty Monument statues put together. 2022 OE2 is an Apollo class asteroid, which orbits the sun and crosses the earth’s orbit road, Live Science reports. This was first observed this year, which was shown in 2022 in its name.

If this asteroid hit our planet, it will release more energy than 1,000 nuclear bombs. However, 2022 OE2 missed the earth with a broad difference.
NASA Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) previously said space space moved at a speed of 1.15,872 KMPJ. It is predicted to give birth to the earth at a distance of about 5.1 million km (3.2 million miles), which is more than 13 times the average distance between the earth and the moon.
2022 OE2 also moves significantly further than the asteroid 2022 NF, which comes in 90,000 km or almost 23 percent of the average distance between the earth and the month on July 7.
