An asteroid may hit Earth just one day before the US presidential election. Named 2018VP1 (2018VP1). Such information has been reported by the American space research agency NASA. Also, the agency also said that the chance of the asteroid colliding with the Earth is less than one percent.
NASA researchers said that the height of the asteroid heading towards Earth was 6.5 feet. According to the US organization CNEOS (Centre for Near-Earth Object Studies), asteroid 2018VP1 will pass close to Earth on November 2. According to the CNEOS website, the asteroid will not be visible to the public even if it passes close to Earth during the US election. The asteroid was first discovered by California's Palomar Observatory in 2018. Which was named 2018VP1. According to NASA, this asteroid is essentially not 'dangerous'.
It should be noted that before this, the asteroid 2020 QG passed near the earth. The asteroid passed just 2,950 km above sea level, in the sky just south of the Indian Ocean. The speed of which was 12.3 kilometers per second. However, much less than other asteroids. The asteroid was about the size of an SUV, researchers said.
Every year some small asteroid comes close to Earth. Most of it enters the atmosphere and takes the form of a fireball. Then it fell, and it was destroyed in the earth. At the last moment, the image was caught by the telescope camera for a short time. Such incidents happen throughout the year. Sometimes, however, small asteroids are not detected by telescopes until they approach Earth. But what happens in most cases is that the asteroids leave the Earth at a safe distance.
