    About this moment

    There are 2,288 days until Asteroid 2024 YR4 close approach, on Wednesday, 22 December 2032.

    Asteroid 2024 YR4 passes about 278,333 km from Earth (0.7 lunar distances) at 08:22 UTC on 22 December 2032, according to JPL CNEOS close-approach data. It approaches at 13.3 km/s relative to Earth and has an absolute magnitude of 23.9, which suggests a diameter of 44 m to 97 m.
