The big ball of fire, imaginatively named 2000 EM26, is the size of three football pitches and is travelling at over 27,000 miles per hour.
And with the wonders of the internet, you’ll be able to watch the whole event unfold live, via YouTube.
Luckily, there’s no need to pack Bruce Willis off in a spaceship to destroy this Asteroid quite yet.
The giant rock is over 2.6 million kilometres away; although this is still deemed a near miss by NASA.
The asteroid’s path is expected to take it over the Canary Islands and website Sloosh, the online observatory, will be beaming live footage of the event via its YouTube channel.
The Sloosh website says, “On February 17th, a Near-Earth Asteroid, “2000 EM26”, with an estimated diameter of three football fields, (270m), will come racing by Earth on its close-approach.
This is a subtle reminder of the dangers of asteroid impacts just one year after two historic events took place on February 15th, 2013”
