Nasa has listed a warning on its "near-Earth objects" alert page as three rogue asteroids are set to speed closely past Earth today and tomorrow.
The largest of the three asteroids, which is the size of the leaning tower of Pisa, could cause a catastrophic event if it smashed into our planet.
The first asteroid, known as 2019 AT6, will pass Earth this afternoon at 4.20pm NZDT at speeds of over 7,380 km/s.
The 17-metre object will skim within 3.2 million kilometres (2 million miles) of Earth, or about eight times the distance between our planet and the moon.
The second space rock to skim pass Earth is 2019 AM8 and it is far larger than the previous asteroid - approaching us at twice the speed.
The object is big as a blue whale and will hit speeds of almost 40,555 km/s as it passes Earth at 5.03am tomorrow.
