An asteroid, 2013 TX68, the size of a basket ball court is expected to fly past earth for the second time in two years, from March 5 to March 8.
In a statement, Paul Chodas, manager of NASA's Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), said "The data indicate that this small asteroid will probably pass much farther away from Earth than previously thought."
The asteroid flew past earth in 2014, at a comfortable distance of about 1.3 million miles.
