The second, 2010 RF12 is designed about 20-46 meters in size. It was anticipated to lose the ground rapidly 49.088000 miles.

According to NASA, the asteroids have detected only on Sunday through the Catalina Sky Survey. Their path was then traced with scientists at the Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Mass. This established that the space rock would hit Earth. The asteroids should be noticeable to part-time astronomers with telescopes of modest range.

They made it to the surface of the Earth have caused by least minor damage. NASA told the similar size near-Earth asteroids are almost a daily event and only hit the Earth about one time in each ten years.
