TL;DR Summary

An asteroid the size of 48 eggplants, designated as 2023 HF4, is set to pass by Earth on April 25, 2023, according to NASA's asteroid tracker. Although it is one of five asteroids set to pass by the planet on Tuesday, 2023 HF4 will be coming much closer than any of the others. Its arrival also coincides with Israel's Remembrance Day and just before Independence Day. However, it is not close enough to cause any harm. Scientists have been working on ways to defend the Earth from asteroids, and the most promising result of this research is NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) Mission.
