Scientists were able to discover the cosmic body, which will fly close to our planet.
At a distance of 7 million km from Earth on 1 September will fly by a large asteroid Florence.
The size of the asteroid is 4.4 km away.
“Although many of the asteroids and flew closer to the Ground, but they were all smaller. Florence is the largest asteroid that will pass close to our planet in the entire history of observations,” said the Manager of the research center of near-earth objects.
It is noted that a relatively small distance will enable him to study well.
