- The meteorite will pass approximately 5.44 million km from Earth
- Another two meteorological astronomical events will happen this month
- This astronomical event poses no danger to the earth
The meteorite is about 97 meters large, meaning it will be a large enough size to hold five buses one at a time. It will be about 3.38 million miles (about 5.44 million km) from Earth. Of course it is not dangerous to the earth in any way. The asteroid WR3 was first reported by scientists on November 27. NASA says the meteorite will pass 16,777 miles per hour (27,000 kilometers per hour) in the solar system. It will pass 40,075 km from the Earth in less than an hour.
In addition, another meteorite on December 20, 216258 (2006 WH1), will pass 26,843 miles per hour faster than the Earth, the size of this celestial body is about 540 meters, which is as large as the World Trade Center. Also on December 26th, the CH59 meteorite will pass close to Earth.
It will pass close to Earth on December 26, 2019 at 7.54am. And it will be about 0.04874 astronomical unit (au) distance from Earth. Of course the Earth is completely safe from all these meteorites.
