NASA has issued an alert about a massive asteroid, 2024 PK2, that will make its closest approach to Earth on August 11. The 83-foot asteroid is part of the Aten group and will pass by our planet at a distance of 795,000 miles, which is considered very close in astronomical terms. Although this distance appears vast, it's still important for NASA to monitor near-Earth objects like 2024 PK2 to ensure public safety.
