"Gigantic Asteroid to Safely Whiz by Earth, Says NASA"

NASA predicts that an asteroid the size of 64 Canadian geese, named 2007 EG, will pass over Earth on January 30, but it won't come close, flying at a distance of over 4.8 million kilometers. Despite recent asteroid impacts, such as 2024 BX1 over Germany, scientists are working on planetary defense measures, with kinetic deflection showing promise, as demonstrated by NASA's DART Mission.
