A space rock two and a half times larger than the Empire State Building is about to pass close to Earth!



US experts say that a space rock (asteroid) two and a half times longer than the Empire State Building will pass very close to our Earth in the next two days. But there is no need to worry.

This space rock has been given the technical name of 7482 or '1994 PC1' because it was first discovered in 1994.

At 3,451 feet in diameter, this meteorite (according to Pakistani time) will be at 19:53 AM on January 19, 2022 at a distance of 1930,000 km from the Earth, which will be its shortest distance from the Earth.

Because of this distance, the Earth will not be in any danger from this meteor.

The meteor has a speed of 76,192 kilometers per hour and the faster it gets closer to the earth, the faster it will move away from the earth.

It revolves in a separate orbit and completes one revolution around the sun in a year and seven months according to our earth.

A live broadcast of 7482 has also been arranged which can be viewed on the website "Inverse".

It should be noted that this is not the largest space rock to pass "near" the Earth, but this honor is still held by "Asteroid 3122 Florence" which has been found to be 8.85 km wide and which in September 2057 the Earth. Will only travel a few million kilometers.
