A near-Earth object (NEO) is any small solar system body whose orbit brings it close to Earth. NASA tracks thousands of asteroids and comets that pass within 1.3 AU of the Sun using ground and space-based telescopes.
A potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) is a near-Earth asteroid with an absolute magnitude of 22 or brighter (at least ~140 m wide) and a minimum orbit intersection distance of 0.05 AU or less with Earth. PHAs are closely monitored by NASA.
Asteroid Apophis (99942) will make a historically close approach to Earth on April 13, 2029, passing within about 31,000 km โ closer than many geostationary satellites. NASA has ruled out any impact for this pass.
Several near-Earth asteroids have confirmed close approaches to Earth in 2026. Use our asteroid search and tracker to browse the latest NASA NEO data on upcoming passes, including approach distances and speeds.
