Close approach of asteroid to Earth

Videonummer 11926964
Animation of the asteroid 128 Nemesis approaching Earth and entering the atmosphere, and passing through it without colliding with the Earth. 128 Nemesis is a large asteroid, some 190 kilometres in diameter, which orbits the Sun in the main asteroid belt. Its elliptical orbit takes it between 2.4 and 3.1 times the Earth-Sun distance. Gravitational interactions with Jupiter could send the asteroid on a collision course with Earth, as has happened in the past with other asteroids. Collision with a body the size of 128 Nemesis would be catastrophic for life on Earth.<br>Restrictions:
