Astronauts closely monitor giant meteorite targeting Earth The US space agency NASA has announced that a meteorite with a diameter of 4,500 feet will pass close to the Earth’s tomorrow. But NASA has listed it as a dangerous meteorite.

This means that the meteorite will travel nine times the distance between the Earth and the Moon. The speed of the meteorite is 94000 kilometers per hour. The astronauts hope to be able to observe the 1.4 km wide meteorite passing through the Earth’s telescope. It is expected to pass through the Earth’s edge again in 2063. Observing the orbit of the meteorite. But experts say it will not cause significant problems this time around.

Meteors, on the other hand, are rocks and particles that rapidly enter the Earth’s atmosphere from space. They come to Earth at speeds of 11 to 70 kilometers per second. As they enter the Earth’s atmosphere, they heat up due to friction with the air. They are usually ignited in the atmosphere. Those are the fast-moving sparks we sometimes see in the sky at night. They disappear quickly because they burn out in a matter of seconds.
