Nasa on alert as airplane-sized 120-foot asteroid to approach Earth on Christmas eve

Five asteroids are approaching Earth in the coming days, with the largest, the airplane-sized 2024 XN1, passing by on December 24th at a safe distance of over 4.4 million miles. Several smaller asteroids will also make closer passes before then, all monitored by NASA's Asteroid Watch. None of the asteroids pose a threat to Earth.
