The US space agency NASA said that COWECP5 was spotted by its Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), intended to provide up to a week’s notice of incoming space objects. In this case, the time between detection and impact was just seven hours.
Tuesday’s asteroid was the fourth to hit the atmosphere this year, but was small and posed no danger. According to a 2017 study, an object would need to be around 18 meters across to do serious damage.
