Washington, August 8, 2020, Friday

Another asteroid is scheduled to pass between the Moon and Earth on September 1. Named Asteroid 2011 ES2, the planet is 30-40 meters wide. While it would be closer to about 1.2 million km from the Earth will pass closer. Although this distance is very small according to the calculation of space distance, it is not considered to be a risk. The asteroid was discovered in 2011 and takes 1.15 years to complete one of its orbits. Its orbit with the Earth is closest once in 6 years.

Since the theory that giant dinosaurs inhabited the earth was destroyed by an asteroid collision 50 million years ago, the common man is also interested in learning about asteroids. According to one source, more than 3 lakh small and large celestial bodies orbit the Sun in the form of asteroids. Most of which are found in the circumference of the solar system. The asteroid that passed Earth asteroids are closely. The orbits of asteroids pass peacefully at a safe distance from Earth. If any piece of space collides with the earth, the earth will not be destroyed.

Asteroids are researched and monitored by the US space agency NASA. So far, as many as eight asteroids have been suspected of damaging the Earth. Although there is no danger of damage from this asteroid which will pass on September 1, but on November 9, 2020, the probability of asteroid 2018 VP1 hitting the Earth is 0.50%. It shall decide at the time of stimulation.
