"There is a high probability of an asteroid hitting the Earth" (Editing: Gadi Winstock, Narration: Liron Barry)
A huge asteroid is expected to pass over Earth early next week.
The huge asteroid, 0.51 kilometers long (just like the Golden Bridge in San Francisco) and the tallest tower in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai - over 800 meters, moves at a dizzying speed of 90,000 km / h and will pass 4,302,775 kilometers from Earth (it Sounds far away but in terms of space it's really close.)

The asteroid was first discovered by scientists in New Mexico on November 29, 2000, and they have been following it ever since.
It is called the recorded asteroid 153201 2000 WO107 and is expected to pass on Sunday, November 29 at 12:09 Israel time near Earth.
NASA explained that the asteroid was defined as NEA, an asteroid close to Earth, because it would be 1.3 astronomical units away from us, and in addition it was defined as PHE - a potentially damaging asteroid. Crosses the Earth's orbit and they could pose a danger.
Despite all these definitions, and despite being huge, we will not be able to see the asteroid from Earth. And despite the fact that there is zero percent chance of it colliding with Earth, NASA has still decided to enter national alert for asteroids Cause damage to the planet and they are preparing for the worst case scenario.
