NASA Tracks Asteroid 2024 PT5 During Close Earth Flyby

NASA’s Goldstone Solar System Radar is tracking asteroid 2024 PT5 as it makes its closest approach to Earth in January 2025.

First discovered in August 2024, the 33-foot-wide asteroid orbits the Sun in a path similar to Earth’s, making it a temporary companion to our planet.

It remains at a safe distance, five times farther than the Moon, and poses no threat.

While its orbit suggests it could be a chunk of rock ejected from the Moon or a rocket body, scientists believe it is of natural origin, Sci-Tech Daily has reported.
