Asteroids remain a mystery as well as a challenge for space scientists.
These are said to be the fragments left at the time of the formation of the solar system, that is, they may be the remains of the planets.
By understanding their structure, scientists can find out how the various planets of the solar system were formed.
NASA's JPL has issued an alert for one such asteroid today.

NASA has described its size as that of a building. In this respect, it is a very big asteroid.
An asteroid can be dangerous for the Earth if it comes closer than 75 lakh kilometres.
It is going to come closer to the earth by 34.60 lakh kilometres. NASA has not released any information about its collision with the Earth.
