You’ll be happy to know that doomsday won’t be happening any day this week.
While it is true that a giant space rock is set to travel by Earth today Friday, March 8, humanity has nothing to fear.
The mega asteroid, 2019 DN, measures between 298 and 656 feet wide, according to NASA, but it will pass Earth around 13 lunar distances away.
One lunar distance is the distance from Earth to the moon, which is about 238,900 miles. So 2019 DN’s flyby will be very far away from us — approximately 3,105,700 miles away.
