NASA had predicted that the asteroid will fly past Earth at a distance of approximately 4 million miles on April 29, 2020. But with this news the rumors about the end of Earth and hence the Humanity starts spreading on whole Eastern Region of Asia.
A rumour stating that the world is going to end on April 29, 2020 is going viral on social media. The rumour is accompanied by a video which has a logo of a news channel showing an asteroid travelling towards Earth.
The Reality
On checking the facts, it was found that an asteroid named 52768 will be passing by Earth on April 29. The asteroid was discovered by NASA in the year 1998 and has been watched its movement ever since. It had even predicted that the asteroid will fly past Earth at a distance of approximately 4 million miles on April 29, 2020.
Recently, the Center for Near Earth Object Studies had tweeted that any warning regarding the asteroid is not true and that it will safely pass Earth by 3.9 million miles.
What if this would be a Reality?
You need to know that this is just a rumour and not correct theory. Well, if anyway this would be true then our International Space Defense system is ready to accept these challenges. We have enough powerful missiles that can destroy Asteroids. But what if the Asteroid is so much big. Well that would be interesting question for future post.
You can drop your opinion on what can we do to handle this situation.
Cheers!
