What Happens to Earth in 2028?

Published in Astronomy 1 min read

In October 2028, asteroid 1997 XF11 will pass Earth at a safe distance, well beyond the Moon's orbit, posing no threat of impact.

While initially there were concerns about a potential collision, NASA astronomers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) have determined that there is zero probability of the asteroid impacting Earth. This conclusion was reached following more precise calculations and observations, alleviating any previous anxieties. The asteroid will pass by at a "comfortable distance".

Therefore, based on current scientific understanding, nothing significant or threatening will happen to Earth in 2028 regarding asteroid impacts from 1997 XF11.
