The Dhaka Times Desk Mankind survived for a while. The 'devastating' asteroid has passed by the earth. A huge asteroid has passed by the Earth.
When the people of the world are disorientated due to the deadly corona virus, just at that time, a big part of the world passed. A huge asteroid has passed by the Earth. Scientists believe that the entire human race could have disappeared if the two-kilometer-wide rock somehow touched the earth.
It is known that this huge asteroid passed about 63 lakh kilometers (39 lakh miles) away from the earth today (Wednesday) morning. It was about half the size of Mount Everest. Being at a safe distance, it had no impact on Earth. Still, NASA scientists kept a watchful eye in space during the asteroid's passage.
The asteroid was named 1998 OR2 when it was first discovered by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 1998. An image of it captured at the observatory was also released recently. Apparently the asteroid looks like a mask.
Astronomers have said that the asteroid's appearance is due to geographic features. Actually the asteroid is filled with numerous mountains. That's why he looks like that.
In this regard, scientists said, at least until 2079, there is no reason for people to worry about the asteroid. This is because it will never come close to Earth before. However, even if it comes around 2079, this asteroid will pass through the distance of about four times the distance of the moon from the earth.
