Asteroid; The celestial giant passed by without even touching the earth

 

Nothing happened as feared. Asteroid 2024 ON, the size of two football stadiums, has passed Earth unscathed. The European Space Agency had earlier announced that asteroid 2024 ON will make its closest approach to Earth on September 17 at 10:17 Central European Summer Time. But with gentleness, 2024 ON leaps forward, leaving Earth behind. 2024 ON will come close to Earth again in 2035.

2024 ON has been the asteroid that NASA has been chasing since its discovery. The European Space Agency also kept an eye on the 2024 ON asteroid. This was due to its extraordinary size and speed. NASA estimates that the asteroid, measuring 210-500 meters in size, is traveling at a speed of 40,233 km/h. NASA had earlier predicted that the 2024 ON would pass through a safe distance without even touching Earth, but there were concerns that if the trajectory of the asteroid changed due to other collisions in space, it would cause heavy damage to Earth. But the 2024 ON asteroid passed to end all worries.
