The closest asteroid to pass by Earth in a year is set to fly by on Thursday – but don't worry, it will safely pass us. This asteroid, which is roughly the size of a school bus at 15 to 30 feet wide, according to a report from the Nasa Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology, will make its closest approach to our planet on September 24, but fear not – Earth is in the clear.
