TL;DR Summary

NASA is closely monitoring asteroid Bennu, which has a theoretical possibility of entering Earth's orbit and posing a threat by September 24, 2182. Bennu measures around 1,610 feet in diameter and could unleash 1,200 megatons of energy upon impact, making it 24 times more powerful than the most potent nuclear weapon ever created. While the chances of it hitting Earth are very low, Bennu remains one of the two most hazardous known asteroids in our solar system.
