Known for its strange oval shape and the size of the Eiffel Tower, the asteroid will pass next to Earth at 14,700 miles per hour. NASA defines this as a “dangerous possibility” but there is no need to fear or create an underground bunker to avert disaster.
Touching the earthDecember 11 Gives An asteroid A strange oval shape and as large as the Eiffel Tower. No, this is not a Tom Cruise movie to save the world, but something that will happen next week. The protagonist of the colorful story is called 4660 Nerius (Or abbreviation 1982 DBnon) but only to friends Nereus, and NASA defines this rock as “potentially dangerous” just 300 meters long due to its “close” distance to Earth. In fact, it’s 2.5 million miles, ten times the distance between our planet and the moon, so we do not have to worry, at 14,700 miles per hour without removing the points from the driver’s license, but that is to say. The American Space Agency has strong and rigid rules and assumes that an asteroid or comet about 30 million miles from Earth’s orbit is close to Earth. Because, up to the last, the path line may vary.

Given these complexes, there is no need to unleash the NASA DART (Dual Asteroid Reversal Test), or Space ‘Bullet’ Launched in recent days by a rocket named SpaceX di Musk , From a site in California, a lunar asteroid with a diameter of 160 meters collided with Dimarbos, breaking it, an example to see if the path and speed are different. This story sounds like Surreal. For scientists, the 4660 Nerius, discovered only in 1982, could benefit from the eruption on the one hand, but on the other hand it would destroy the source of the mineral resources and become a site for space exploration. Tough choice. In fact, according to some studies, Nereus, for example, must contain large amounts of minerals Nickel, iron and cobalt, With a starting value of $ 4.71 billion, is again known for its database of over 600,000 asteroids and detailed records, according to Asterrank estimates.

The possibility of mining asteroids has always been talked about, not to mention that it could be the work of two companies, Blue Origin and SpaceX. Isn’t that weird?
