The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has warned that a building-sized asteroid is moving at a high speed towards Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to reports, this massive celestial body measures 368 feet in size and is traveling through space at a record speed of 83,175 kilometers per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dubbed “2015 KJ19”, this colossal rock belongs to the Apollo group of asteroids, which frequently intersect Earth\u2019s path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The US space agency said that despite its high speed, there is no cause for alarm as the astroid will maintain a safe distance of 6 million kilometers during its encounter, equivalent to 15 times the distance between Earth and the Moon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
