An asteroid floats above Earth
Two different "potentially hazardous" asteroids will fly by Earth this week. Both will be rare and spectacular events, but they won't threaten Earth.
  • On Thursday and Saturday, two different "potentially hazardous" asteroids will fly by Earth.
  • The first is as big as a mountain, and the second will be one of the brightest in recent history.
  • Neither of them poses a threat to Earth, and you can watch their fly-bys live.

Two rare asteroids will zoom past Earth at close range this week, within just 42 hours of each other.
