NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office has been tracking a new asteroid named 2023 DW that has a very small chance of impacting Earth on Feb. 14, 2046.
A near-Earth object is classified as any space object that can come within 30 million miles of Earth.
If one of these asteroids were to come close, the PDCO would alert the government and the public. According to the PDCO, there is a greater than 1% chance of this happening over the next 50 years.
