The US space agency lists the object as “Potentially Dangerous Asteroid.” If it hit Earth, it would create a “Nuclear winter of many years”.
However, NASA itself said there is nothing to fear since the 2002 PZ39 will pass about 3.6 million miles from the planet, that means at a distance 15 times greater than that between the moon and the Earth.
So there is nothing to worry about, this Valentine will not be the last one celebrated in life.
