NASA Tracks 180-Foot Asteroid Approaching Earth at 16,900 mph
NASA and international space agencies are monitoring asteroid 2025 OL1, which will pass Earth at a safe distance of 1.29 million kilometers on July 30, 2025. Although it is classified as potentially hazardous due to its size, there is no threat to Earth. These flybys serve as important opportunities to improve detection and tracking systems, enhancing planetary defense strategies for future, potentially more dangerous objects.
