A football-field-sized asteroid will pass Earth safely on October 03, 2025, closely tracked by astronomers.
Measuring 58.0 meters (190.3 feet), this asteroid is comparable to a sports field or the base of a skyscraper.
Despite its size, this asteroid poses no threat to Earth on October 03, 2025.
An asteroid of this size could severely impact a region, producing a crater and widespread shockwave damage.
No modern impacts of this size are recorded, but past geological evidence shows such events cause major regional effects.
Apophis will pass extremely close in 2029.
Near-Earth asteroids are remnants from the solar system's formation, and NASA tracks over 35,000 of them.
Astronomers maintain constant vigilance for objects of this magnitude, ensuring early warning.
