🚨NASA TRACKS STADIUM-SIZED ASTEROID FLYING 'RELATIVELY CLOSE' TO EARTH NASA is monitoring asteroid 2024 ON, a massive 1,150-foot by 590-foot object moving at 20,000 mph. It passed within 621,000 miles of Earth on Tuesday morning, close enough to be deemed "potentially hazardous"—though there's no risk of impact.
