The picture above reveals all of the KNOWN asteroids that could potentially strike Earth, with NASA admitting that there are many more UNKNOWN rocks that may also brush past us without them knowing about.
The picture above shows a huge number of different lines all representing orbits of different asteroids, as revealed by Slooh astronomers this week.
Although NASA have downplayed the likelihood of an asteroid striking the earth any time soon, experts agree that these new images are “startling” and something to “keep an eye on to make sure they do not hit us”.
Could the rumors of a massive catastrophic asteroid colliding with Earth this September be true after all?
Express.co.uk reports:
Eric Edelman, producer of the Slooh telescope live internet channel said: “This is a startling image. These are the potentially hazardous asteroids that surround us and we are keeping an eye on to make sure they do not hit us. This is a really amazing figure to see that many lines that we are keeping our eye on.”
Mr Berman said: “Absolutely, I wish we could see it in 3D as we can’t see how many of them cross our path in each dimension, but if it is in this diagram it means they can cross our path and can hit us and that is a lot of them. If a half mile object like icarus hit it would be a very band day for Earth indeed.”
He also said the orbits were unpredictable, adding: “They do not have nice round orbit like our own planet, some go in then come out.”
