Giant asteroid 1998 OR2 set to fly past Earth safely
A Giant asteroid, 1998 OR2, will fly past Earth on Wednesday.
Astronomers say the asteroid, more than a mile (1.6km) wide, will not collide with our planet but will get close enough for us to study it.
The space rock heading to Earth has been classified as a ‘potentially hazardous object’, but scientists say 1998 OR2 is not a threat.
