City-Killer Asteroid Safely Passes Earth | JQJO

Asteroid 2025 FA22, comparable in size to the Chrysler Building, will make a close approach to Earth on Thursday, passing within 520,000 miles. While posing no immediate threat, it was initially flagged as a potential risk for a 2089 impact. However, updated trajectory calculations by the ESA have removed it from their risk list. This close approach provides a valuable opportunity for scientists to study the asteroid's composition and refine planetary defense strategies against future potential threats. The asteroid's flyby can be observed via telescope or a livestream.
