Asteroid warning: NASA tracks a 4KM killer rock on approach – Could end human civilisation

AN ASTEROID capable of ending human civilisation if it hits will approach our planet in April, NASA's asteroid trackers have confirmed

The asteroid is being watched by NASA’s automated tracking systems at the Center for Near Earth Object Studies in California, US.
The asteroid has been officially called 52768 (1998 OR2) and is estimated measure up 2.5 miles (4.1km) across.

An object this big could potentially spell the end of the human race if it strikes the planet.

NASA estimates the rock is heading our way at speeds of about 8.7km per second or 19,461mph (31,320kmh).

But just how close does NASA expect the asteroid to come to Earth next month?

At its closest, the space rock will approach our planet from about 0.04205 astronomical units.

One astronomical unit is the average distance from our planet to the Sun – about 93 million miles (149.6 million km).

Asteroid OR2 will drastically cut this down to just 3.9 million miles (6.29 million km) on April 29.

In other words, the space rock is expected to miss us by about 16.36 times the distance from Earth to the Moon.
