A 1,300 feet long asteroid could hit the Earth in 2032 impacting with a force 50 times greater than the biggest ever nuclear bomb, informed NASA.

The date such asteroid, named 2013 TV135, could strike the Earth is on August 26, 2032 and the chance it hits our planet is 1 in 63,000, which is enough to classify the object within the Torino scale turning it into a potential risk.

The astronomer Gennady Borisov, from the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory, discovered the asteroid while he was watching and monitoring the Giraffe constellation on the night of October 12th.

If the asteroid struck the Earth, it would damage a surface of 100,000 square miles with a force of 2,500 megatons of TNT or 2,500 standard nuclear US Minute Man II missiles.

By 2028, scientists hope they will be able to foresee the exact trajectory and impact site in order to get a final conclusion on the object risk.
