American space agency NASA has warned that a huge asteroid is hurtling towards Earth and is expected to pass by the planet on 6 April 2023.

NASA reportedly said that a 150-foot-wide rock named Asteroid 2023 FZ3 is travelling at a speed of more than 67,000 km/hour, and is expected to come as close as 41.9 lakh km to Earth.

However, it is not a potentially hazardous threat to the planet.

On April 5, a 65-foot house-sized asteroid is expected to pass by Earth at a distance of 57.5 lakh km.
