Asteroid 2014 RC, the size of a house, grazed Earth today to settle some 40,000 kilometers from the planet

The time came closer when he was on New Zealand at 6:18 local time. 
20 meters long, it was barely visible, but fans took advantage of astronomy telescopes to view the unusual phenomenon. The asteroid was discovered by an observatory in Arizona, United States, just a week ago. 

Although he did not hit the Earth, its orbit will bring it to your area in the future, so what the NASA monitereará carefully. It was also located near the band satellites orbiting the planet. 
In 2012, a meteor similar to the 2014 RC size fell in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk, where over a thousand people were injured. 
Interestingly, today a large fireball was seen in Spain, although the two events are unrelated.
