NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is currently tracking three asteroids scheduled to pass Earth on 25 September 2025. The asteroids—2025 SG, 2025 SF, and 2025 RK7—pose no threat, but offer a prime opportunity for scientific study. These celestial visitors will safely glide past the planet, presenting a rare moment to observe space objects up close.
Asteroid 2025 SG: House-Sized Object
Asteroid 2025 SG is around 46 feet in width, a substantial size by space standards. Despite its size, there is no risk, as it will pass Earth at a safe distance of 682,000 miles—farther than the Moon’s orbit.
Asteroid 2025 SF: Airplane-Sized Rock
Asteroid 2025 SF measures about 170 feet across. This larger asteroid will also pass safely at a distance of 2,860,000 miles, making it a notable object for observation.
Asteroid 2025 RK7: Another Airplane-Sized Object
Asteroid 2025 RK7, approximately 100 feet wide, will make its closest pass at a distance of 4,230,000 miles from Earth. Like the others, it will safely bypass the planet, providing valuable data for scientists.
