NASA: 190-Foot Asteroid Passed Toward Earth Today

NASA has issued a warning about asteroid 2024 UT7, which is 190 feet wide and will pass dangerously close to Earth today. Traveling at speeds of nearly 30,000 km/h, the asteroid will come within 1 million kilometers of Earth. Although it's not considered a "potentially hazardous asteroid," its close distance and high speed make it a priority for observation. NASA tracks such objects through its NEO Observations Program to monitor any potential risks.
