NASA has issued an alert about a massive asteroid that will come close to Earth later this month. NASA has included it in the ?Earth Close Approaches list?, which keeps track of space asteroids that need to be monitored. That's why space agencies consider any asteroid larger than a certain size that comes within 4.65 million miles of Earth as "potentially hazardous." Asteroid 2023 CL3 is expected to pass by Earth on May 24, at a distance of just under 4.5 million miles. In short, a massive asteroid, will approach Earth at a speed of 51,000 mph.
