Compared to other asteroids, to illustrate the difference, the Chelyabinsk asteroid, which hit Siberia in 2013 and caused nearly 1,500 injuries and extensive destruction to buildings, was about 15 meters wide and 17 meters long.
However, the danger of this asteroid, named 52768 (1998 OR2), impacting planet Earth is quite remote. According to calculations made by NASA experts, the asteroid will pass at a distance greater than the equivalent distance between the Moon and our planet, so we cannot consider ourselves in any real danger .
