No risk of collision
Scientists say there's zero risk from this flyby.
The asteroid is way smaller than what scientists consider "potentially hazardous," so it's just passing by without any chance of hitting us.
NASA tracks over 35,000 near-Earth objects using telescopes and radar around the world.
Projects like Pan-STARRS and ATLAS are always on the lookout for anything new flying by.
If you're curious, check out NASA's Asteroid Watch dashboard or its Next Five Approaches tracker for real-time updates.
Because the object is very small and will pass at a large distance, it is unlikely to be visible to amateur telescopes.
