A huge disaster is rushing from space to Earth, with only 48 hours left

Washington, Ta. 27 April 2020, Monday

Scientists around the world are concerned that a new problem is fast approaching in the face of the Corona. A huge space disaster will pass close to the earth in 48 hours and if even a small change in direction is created, there will be a huge risk. About a month and a half ago, the US space agency NASA predicted that a giant asteroid was rapidly approaching Earth. The asteroid is reported to be several times larger than Mount Everest, the highest mountain on Earth.

The speed of this asteroid is 31,319 km per hour i.e. 8.72 km per second. If it hits any part of the earth at this speed, a huge tsunami will come or many countries will be ruined. NASA says it will pass about 62.90 lakh km from Earth so there is no need to worry. In space science, such a distance is not too far, but it is not small. However, some scientists have expressed fears that it will collide with the Earth.

This asteroid is named 52768 (1998 OR 2). The asteroid, about 4 km in diameter, was first spotted by NASA in 1998. It will pass near Earth on April 29 at 3:26 p.m. It will be noon in India so it cannot be seen with the naked eye in daylight.

According to astronomer Dr. Steven Pravda, the meteorite 52768 takes 1,340 days or even 3.7 years to complete one revolution of the sun. This means that the next orbit around the Earth will cut around May 18, 2031 and at that time it could pass a distance of 1.90 crore km. According to astronomers, such asteroids may collide with Earth every 100 years, but somehow they escape from the Earth's edge.

Dr. involved in the group of international astronomers. Bruce Bates said that small asteroids are only a few meters long and most of the time they burn up as they enter the atmosphere so there is no major damage. In 2013, a meteorite about 20 meters long hit the atmosphere. Apart from that, in 1908, a 40 meter long meteorite hit the Siberian atmosphere and caught fire.
