An asteroid the size of the Gibraltar rock will be the largest asteroid to come this close to Earth since 2004.
On Wednesday, the object is expected to pass close to our planet, zooming by at a distance of just over a million miles (1.8 million km), but with no chance of impact, according to Nasa scientists.
