Its orbit is slightly tilted with respect to ours (by about 5°), so in general even when it's closest to Earth an impact is pretty unlikely. It will pass relatively close to the Earth on Saturday night/Sunday morning at 03:20 UTC (11:20PM Eastern US time) at a distance of just over 5 million kilometers.


Heres the time The Asteroid passes earth 11:20 pm tonight.

Good night for a camp out. Maybe feel the vibrations as it passes. Its just nice to be outside when it passes, even if you dont feel or see anything. Just to be there live in its presence.
