An asteroid expected to reach Earth’s atmosphere today is under great observation by scientists. As the cosmic object speeds across the atmosphere, this amazing astronomical event is set to provide a mesmerizing show.
Only a few hours after its detection, NASA’s Catalina Sky Survey discovered an asteroid. This result highlights the growing accuracy of scientists in spotting such objects before they reach Earth.
The Catalina Sky Survey’s researchers praised Jacqueline Fazekas for her asteroid identification contribution. The finding happened only eight hours before the expected atmospheric fall.

With only nine known cases in history, the European Space Agency (ESA) claims that the discovery of an asteroid before the crash is rather unusual. The atmosphere of Earth will soon witness an event.
News sources estimate a space rock to pass over Philippine Luzon Island. Residents will see a fireball streaking across the heavens.
