The asteroid 2026 JH2, with a width of up to 35 meters, will pass by Earth on Monday at an altitude of 91,000 km, closer than some satellites.

With a length of up to 35 meters, Asteroid 2026 JH2 will approach Earth on Monday night, at an altitude of approximately 91,000 kilometers, which is a shorter distance than that of some satellites. Discovered on May 10 by astronomers at the Mount Lemmon Observatory, the asteroid is moving at a speed of approximately 32,000 km/h.

Its size is similar to that of the Chelyabinsk meteor, which exploded over Russia in 2013, and it is the largest space rock to enter Earth's atmosphere in the last 120 years. Observers can track the asteroid's passage with a good telescope or binoculars, and the Virtual Telescope Project will provide a live broadcast of the event. It is also mentioned that the next considerable-sized asteroid that will approach Earth is 99942 Apophis, which will fly at 32,000 km from the planet on April 13, 2029, and experts are closely monitoring it to prevent potential collisions.
