On March 21, 2021, the large asteroid 2001 FO32 made a close approach with our planet, passing at a distance of about 1.25 million miles (2 million kilometers) or 5 1 4 times the distance from Earth to the Moon. While there was no risk of the near-Earth asteroid colliding with Earth as its orbit is very well known, scientists at NASA s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California took the opportunity to capture these radar images of the asteroid as it tumbled past. Using NASA s 34-meter (111.5-feet) Deep Space Station 13 (DSS-13) radio antenna at the Deep Space Network s Goldstone Deep Space Communication Complex near Barstow, California, radio signals were transmitted to 2001 FO32. The signals then bounced off the surface of the as
