An asteroid will come very close to Earth on Thursday night, but there is no need to panic.
According to NASA, the asteroid-called 2023 BU- will be 2,200 miles above Earth. It’ll be at its closest when it passes over the edge of South America around 7:27 p.m. eastern time.
The asteroid was first discovered on Saturday. NASA has assured the public that there is no need to worry about being hit by the small asteroid.
