An asteroid measuring in at approximately 150 feet will fly past Earth next week according to Space.com.

The asteroid will reach within 17,200 miles of earth according to the report, the closest known approach ever for an object of that size. NASA scientists have already confirmed that there is no reason to worry about the asteroid hitting earth however.

The asteroid, which is actually small when compared to previously discovered spacerocks, will come closer to Earth than many high-flying satellites as well. The report by Space.com said the asteroid, which is being called DA14, will be viewable by using binoculars or telescopes as it flies by.

"The flyby creates a unique opportunity for researchers to observe and learn more about asteroids," NASA officials said in a press statement this week.

Asteroid 2012 DA14 was discovered last year and is about half the size of a football field. The spacerock is also the same size as the asteroid that exploded over Siberia, Russia in 1908 according to Space.com.
