100-foot asteroid, among 4 others, hurtling towards Earth: NASA

5 potentially hazardous asteroids, one of which measures a massive 100-foot in size, are rushing towards Earth in the next couple of days. Know what NASA says about these monster rocks.

Any asteroid that comes within 4.6 million miles or 7.5 million kilometres of Earth, or is larger than approximately 150 meters, is considered potentially dangerous. While some asteroids can be detected by NASA's astronomers, others can unexpectedly hit Earth without being detected. Now, NASA has identified 5 massive asteroids heading towards Earth. (Pixabay)
