NASA Discloses Proximity of 100-Foot Asteroid Approaching Earth Today

-

Following the close passage of two 100-foot asteroids near Earth yesterday, another asteroid is poised to approach our planet today, with NASA closely monitoring its trajectory. Asteroids, remnants from the early formation of the solar system, vary in size and are predominantly found in the asteroid belt. However, factors like gravitational interactions with nearby planets can dislodge some asteroids from this belt.

Due to the potential for significant destruction, space agencies worldwide, including NASA, continuously track these celestial objects. NASA employs a network of space- and Earth-based telescopes and satellites to monitor asteroids around the clock, sharing their findings regularly. Each day sees several asteroid flybys, some of which come remarkably close to Earth. Currently under scrutiny is Asteroid 2024 FL3, measuring 100 feet in diameter, with NASA providing details on its proximity to our planet.

According to NASA's data, Asteroid FL3 will approach within approximately 2,030,000 miles of Earth during its closest approach. While this distance may seem considerable, it is relatively close in astronomical terms, especially when compared to the Moon's proximity, which is about 238,855 miles away. However, NASA assures that Asteroid FL3 will safely pass by Earth at this distance before continuing its journey into space.

Despite this reassurance, another asteroid, designated 2021 FD1, is also on a trajectory toward Earth and is expected to come even closer today. At its nearest point, it will be only 558,000 miles away from Earth.

A team of archaeologists from the University College of London, led by Letty Ingrey, discovered a set of around 800 Acheulean stone tools that are around 300,000 years old. They were found buried in the sediments of an ancient river channel located in the Medway Valley in England. The excavations took place in Kent, which revealed 800 prehistoric artifacts in deep ice age sediments preserved on a hillside above Medway Valley. These artifacts are said to be 300,000 years old. This is the period when Neanderthal people and their cultures were emerging.

     The colon, or large intestine, is a crucial part of the gastrointestinal tract. It plays a vital role in absorbing fluids, nutrients, and electrolytes from digested food while preparing waste for elimination.      A healthy colon ensures proper bowel movements and reduces the risk of digestive issues such as diarrhea, bloating, constipation, and stomach pain. Colon cleansing is essential to flush out toxins from the body.       When the colon slows down or dysfunctions, toxins can accumulate, leading to complications like hemorrhoids, intestinal tears, and chronic constipation. Juices are an excellent way to cleanse the colon as they are easily absorbed and support proper intestinal function. Below are some of the best juices for colon cleansing. 1. Apple Juice      Apples are rich in fiber and polyphenols, particularly pectin, a type of fiber that acts as a probiotic. Pectin feeds the gut bacteria, promoting efficien...
