Asteroids the Size of Buses Approaching EarthHere’s How Close They’ll Get [Video]

NASA is tracking two bus-sized asteroids in the vicinity of the Earth that are whizzing through space at some 11,000 to 24,000 miles per hour.

A space rock known as “2025 HP22,” measuring approximately 22 feet in diameter, is zipping past us at over 24,000 miles per hour this morning, coming as close as within 306,000 miles from the Earth, according to NASA‘s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).

A slightly larger asteroid, known as “2025 JA”—measuring in at around 26 feet across—is also making a close approach today, according to the JPL’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS). Traveling at over 11,000 miles per hour, 2025 JA will get within 317,000 miles of the Earth.

NASA is also tracking two other asteroids near Earth today, including a larger bus-sized one called “2025 HR1” that’s hurtling through space at around 14,000 miles per hour. Measuring about 42 feet in diameter, 2025 HR1 will make its closest approach at around 2.9 …
