NEO Earth Close Approaches - NASA
WEBThe following table shows close approaches to the Earth by near-Earth objects (NEOs) limited as selected in the “Table Settings” below. Data are not available prior to 1900 A.D. nor after 2200 A.D. Data are further limited to encounters with reasonably low uncertainty.
Near-Earth Asteroids as of September 2024 - Science@NASA
WEBAug 29, 2024 · September 2024. Each month, NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office releases a monthly update featuring the most recent figures on NASA’s planetary defense efforts, near-Earth object close approaches, and other timely facts about comets and asteroids that could pose an impact hazard with Earth.

Next Five Asteroid Approaches - NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory …
WEB1 day ago · The dashboard displays the next five Earth approaches to within 4.6 million miles (7.5 million kilometers or 19.5 times the distance to the moon); an object larger than about 150 meters that can approach the Earth to within this distance is termed a potentially hazardous object.
NASA’s Planetary Radar Tracks Two Large Asteroid Close …
WEBJul 3, 2024 · Because close approaches by asteroids the size of 2024 MK are relatively rare, JPL’s planetary radar team gathered as much information about the near-Earth object as possible. This mosaic shows the spinning asteroid in one-minute increments about 16 hours after its closest approach with Earth.

WEBFeb 2, 2024 · Here we explore whether there are any upcoming asteroid encounters and how NASA and other space agencies actively monitor near-Earth asteroids that have the potential to hit our planet.
Apophis - NASA Science
WEBApophis is about 1,100 feet (340 meters) in width. It’s expected to safely pass close to Earth – within 19,794 miles (31,860 kilometers) from our planet’s surface – on April 13, 2029. This will be the closest approach to Earth by an asteroid of this size that scientists have known about in advance.
