Earth is set to witness a series of close flybys as six asteroids, including one classified as a "near-miss," are expected to pass unusually close to the planet tonight, according to NASA's Centre for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS).
The asteroids, which range in size from 4.7 to 48 metres, are being closely monitored by astronomers globally. These flybys offer valuable opportunities for scientific observation of near-Earth objects (NEOs), highlighting the need for continued tracking of such celestial objects.
Details of the asteroids:

The most concerning of tonight's visitors is asteroid 2007 XB23. Measuring between 10 and 23 metres in size, it will pass perilously close to Earth, coming within 0.00298 astronomical units (AU), or less than 450,000 kilometres—well inside the Moon’s orbit.
Is there any threat?
Despite the proximity of these asteroids, NASA has confirmed that there is no imminent threat of a collision.
However, the close approach of 2007 XB23 spotlights the critical need for vigilant asteroid tracking systems to monitor such objects.
Astronomers across the globe are closely monitoring these flybys, which demonstrate the dynamic and unpredictable nature of space.
While no threat is expected, the close encounters offer valuable chances for scientific research into NEO behaviour, composition, and trajectory.
