The imposing asteroid measures up to one,410ft (430m) across and is chop-chop closing in on Earth. Dubbed 1998 FF14, the asteroid is flying towards our planet on an in-depth approach flight. independent agency NASA expects Asteroid FF14 to arrive about to Earth on the morning of Sep twenty-four. once this happens, the house rock can shoot by at unsafe speeds of twenty-two.26km per second or forty-nine thousand mph (80,136kph).
Asteroid FF14 is AN Apollo-type Near-Earth Object or modern orbiting the inner circles of the scheme.
Apollo asteroids follow a flight just like the Asteroid 1862 Apollo.
More notably, however, astronomers have hierarchal FF14 as a doubtless risky Asteroid or PHA.
NASA classifies all asteroids measure over 459ft (140m) in diameter as PHAs.
