A newly discovered near-Earth asteroid, 2026 JH2, is set to pass within approximately 56,907 miles of Earth on May 18th. Scientists estimate the asteroid to be between 52 and 114 feet in diameter, comparable to the size of a Boeing 737's wingspan. While there is no danger of impact, an airburst from an object of this size could cause localized damage. The asteroid was recently discovered by astronomers using the Mount Lemmon Survey and Farpoint Observatory. AI
