Cosmic Close Encounter: ‘Planet Killer’ Asteroid Approaches Colorado

Описание к видео Cosmic Close Encounter: ‘Planet Killer’ Asteroid Approaches Colorado

Get ready for a cosmic encounter! The ‘Planet Killer’ asteroid (415029) 2011 UL21, roughly 7,600 feet long, is hurtling past Earth at 58,000 miles per hour. Although it’s considered a ‘potentially hazardous asteroid,’ catching a glimpse of it requires a powerful telescope. Meanwhile, the smaller asteroid 2024 MK will zip by even closer. Stargazers in the US southwest might spot it, and those near Hawaii’s Mauna Kea volcano could witness its flyby before sunrise. Join us as we explore these celestial visitors! 🌠🔭
