The second asteroid, 2013 CU83, will make its close approach to Earth at 23:37 UTC. 2016 CZ31 measures roughly 400 feet (122 meters) across, with a width comparable to the height of a 40-story skyscraper.
The asteroid orbits within the solar system and makes its closest pass by Earth every few years, with the next one due in January 2028. The first of the two asteroids is named 2016 CZ31 and will make its close approach at 23:02 UTC on Friday, missing the planet by about 1,740,000 miles (2,800,000 kilometers).
