A large asteroid, 2025 FA22, nearly the size of a skyscraper, will pass close to Earth at over 24,000 mph on September 18, but poses no threat according to NASA and ESA. The asteroid, detected in March, offers a rare opportunity for study and highlights the importance of monitoring potentially hazardous objects in space.
A massive asteroid, 427 to 951 feet in size and traveling at over 24,000 mph, will pass close to Earth on September 18, but poses no threat according to NASA and ESA. The asteroid, named 2025 FA22, was discovered in March and is considered potentially hazardous due to its size and proximity, but updated measurements have ruled out collision risk. It offers a rare opportunity for close study and highlights the importance of monitoring near-Earth objects.
A potentially hazardous asteroid the size of the Washington Monument will safely pass Earth on September 18 at about 523,206 miles away, and viewers can watch the flyby live online via the Virtual Telescope Project.
An asteroid named 2025 FA22, measuring between 130 and 290 meters, will safely pass Earth on September 18, 2025, at a distance just over twice the Moon's distance. Although initially considered a potential impact threat for 2089, further observations ruled out any danger. The event provides an opportunity for astronomers to study the asteroid's characteristics and test observation networks, with a livestream available for viewing.
A large asteroid, 2025 FA22, will make a close pass by Earth on September 18, but new observations have ruled out any impact risk, and it is now considered safe. The asteroid was initially thought to have a small chance of hitting Earth in 2089, but refined data eliminated that threat. It will be visible with telescopes and monitored by space agencies, with a livestream available for viewing.
The potentially hazardous asteroid 2025 FA22, discovered in March 2023, will make a close approach to Earth on September 18-21, 2025, passing within the Moon's orbit but posing no impact threat. It will be visible to amateur astronomers with small telescopes and is the focus of a global observational campaign to study its characteristics and orbit, with a live stream available for public viewing.
