The time-lapse video shows the asteroid, known as 2023 DZ2, zooming through space at a speed of more than 17,400 miles per hour over 1 million miles from Earth.
A time-lapse video shows a 200-foot asteroid that had a"very close" encounter with Earth as it approached our planet.s on Saturday, flying past at a safe distance.
The VTP is a service provided by the Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory in Ceccano, Italy, that operates and provides access to robotic, remotely operated telescopes. When Masi took the images on March 22, 2023, DZ2 was located around 1.1 million miles away from our planet and was flying closer to us, getting brighter and brighter.
The asteroid is sufficiently large and flew close enough to our planet that it was even possible for stargazers to observe it with the help of good binoculars or a small telescope, Masi said.
