The asteroid was ’nudged’ into Earth’s near neighbourhood by the gravitational pull of planets as it orbits through the solar system. Asteroid 2020 ND has an estimated diameter of 140 to 300 meters, and will come as close as 50,86,328 kilometres to the Earth. The Centre for Near-Earth Objects Studies at NASA calculates with high precision the orbits for many …
