Attention, astronomy enthusiasts! On June 29, 2024, at 4:12 AM, a public announcement from the Taipei Astronomical Museum warns of the close passing of the asteroid 2024 MK tonight at a distance of about 290,000 kilometers from Earth, less than two-thirds the distance to the Moon. The museum highlights that while there are potentially hazardous asteroids discovered, including Apophis set to pass by Earth in 2029, the asteroid tonight is not expected to impact Earth, providing a rare opportunity to witness such a celestial event.
