Alexander Panov, an astrophysicist, doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, a leading researcher at the Research Institute of Nuclear Physics, Moscow State University, said that an asteroid comparable in size to the Chelyabinsk meteorite, which approaches Earth, does not pose a serious danger.
This is reported by RBC.
He noted that the detection of a small asteroid indicates the good operation of the EOP-2-1 1 complex of an automated warning system about dangerous situations in near-Earth outer space.
Earlier it became known that Russian surveillance tools discovered in early November a new asteroid, comparable in size to the Chelyabinsk meteorite.
