From the London Telegraph:
An asteroid the width of a full-size football pitch could hit Earth in seven years, astronomers have warned.
A space rock between 40 and 100 metres wide was spotted on Christmas Day by a telescope in Chile, in South America, which specializes in identifying objects in space that could collide with our planet. Analysis of the rock and its flight revealed it is moving away from Earth at around 38,000 mph, but its orbit will bring it into close proximity around Christmas 2032.
