NASA alerts for an asteroid ''Apollo'' heading towards Earth

Another major threat is looming over Earth. Asteroid, twice as big as Giza''s pyramid, is rapidly approaching towards Earth. It will enter the Earth''s orbit on 6 September. Scientists at the US Space Agency NASA have feared that it may hit the Earth''s atmosphere. According to Indian time, it can hit the Earth''s atmosphere at 3.30 pm on September 6.


The name of this asteroid is Apollo Asteroid. Because it is crossing the Earth''s orbit and it can prove to be extremely dangerous for the Earth. In scientific language, its name is 465824 (2010FR). Scientists discovered this dangerous asteroid ten years ago. Scientists at the Center for Near-Earth Objects (CNEOS) have said that "Like the rest of the asteroids, it too will pass through the earth. There is no threat to the Earth by this, but NASA scientists have expressed the possibility of danger".


465824 (2010FR) Asteroid is moving towards the earth at a speed of 50,533 km / h. That is a speed of about 14 kilometres per second. This asteroid is 270 meters (885.82 ft) wide and 886 feet long. It is twice as large as the Giza Pyramid in Egypt. NASA scientists have said that this is not a concern, as this asteroid can pass through the side of the earth. However, the process of entering the atmosphere can be very dangerous. Being trapped in the gravitational force of the earth, it can fall into the earth or the sea.
