Twelve Asteroids Approach Earth on March 11, 2025; Largest Estimated at 583 Meters

On March 11, 2025, twelve asteroids will reach their closest point to Earth. The largest of these, asteroid (2020 KR6), is estimated to be between 261 and 583 meters in diameter, reaching its closest approach at 20:33. The second largest, (2021 AD24), measures between 65 and 146 meters. Asteroid (2025 EU2) ranks third largest, with a diameter of 55 to 123 meters. The closest approach to Earth will be made by asteroid (2025 DB7) at 16:29, coming within 3.7 million kilometers. None of the asteroids approaching on this date are classified as potentially hazardous, meaning they do not meet the criteria of being large enough (over 140 meters) and close enough (within 7.5 million kilometers) to cause significant damage upon impact. Nine of the approaching asteroids are classified as Earth-crossers, meaning their orbits intersect Earth's orbit. Asteroids are categorized by their orbital relationship to Earth, with Apollo asteroids crossing from the outside and Aten asteroids from the inside. Amor and Atira asteroids do not cross Earth's orbit.
