    Four asteroids will pass close to Earth on the same day in April 2013, according to experts. The largest asteroid, 4034 Vishnu at 800 meters wide, will pass about 23 million kilometers from Earth. The closest asteroid, EN-98, will pass at a distance of 5 million kilometers. While hundreds of asteroids pass near Earth each year, it is rare for so many to pass close on the same day. The 4034 Vishnu asteroid contains platinum, nickel, and iron estimated to be worth $40 billion, over half the world's GDP in 2012.

    6th A In April 4 asteroids will rub Earth in one day

    April 5th, 2013

    Four asteroids 'will rub' the Earth in one day in April. The experts explained that "several hundred asteroids are very close to the Earth every year", but is rare that nowadays so many of them are flying over the Earth in one day. The largest of the four discovered asteroids, the 4034 Vishnu, is 800 meters in diameter and is expected to pass about 23 million kilometers from the Earth's surface, while the closest asteroid, the EN-98, will pass at a distance of 5 million kilometers. Of the other two asteroids no information is transcendent. On the other hand, companies like Astrorank, which is assessing the composition of asteroids, have a different perspective of the cosmic event: the monetary value of the Vishnu 4034, largely composed of platinum nickel and iron, is $40.000000.000. This amount represents more than half the world's GDP (gross domestic product) in 2012.
