NASA issued an alert about the approach of an asteroid towards Earth with a speed of 26,000 kilometers per hour<\/strong>. Known as 2013 WV44, the space rock was classified as a near-Earth object, and experts announced that they are not prepared to prevent it\u2026 in the event it happens<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to the information provided<\/a> by NASA, the asteroid will reach its closest point to Earth on Wednesday, May 5th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proportions of the space rock are remarkable, measuring approximately 160 meters in diameter and traveling at a speed of 11.8 kilometers per second. When considering the speed in kilometers, the figure exceeds 26,000 kilometers per hour, which is about 34 times the speed of sound<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NASA classifies the asteroid as a near-Earth object, requiring close monitoring. The distance is nine times greater than the distance between our planet and the Moon<\/strong>, but in astronomical terms, it is a relatively small distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
