The US Aerospace Agency (NASA) said the giant mass of about 6 m wide will fly about 45,000 km from Earth today. The time of the planet's approach to Earth especially in the middle of the day even though cosmologists do not know exactly how it is going.

However, experts say that even when flying close to the earth, this 2010 TD54 asteroid will not penetrate the atmosphere and if that happens, it will also be burned before falling to the ground and not dangerous.

NASA's asteroid tracking team says medium-sized telescopes can see the planet and sometimes it is closer to Earth than the moon or some satellites.

" Fortunately, it seems that the planet will not hit us. But it shows that the earth is still in the middle of the space and we need to watch the asteroids rush in, " said Emily Baldwin of the magazine The universe is named Astronomy Now comment.
