One asteroid is the size of Mount Everest, while the other will come closer than the moon, offering a rare skywatching opportunity.

Asteroid 2011 UL21, over 7,500 feet long, will pass Earth at a distance of four million miles on Thursday.
Asteroid 2024 MK, discovered just weeks ago, will fly within 180,000 miles of Earth on Saturday.
Both asteroids pose no threat to Earth, with zero percent chance of impact.
The flybys coincide with World Asteroid Day, highlighting the importance of monitoring near-Earth objects.
Astronomers and enthusiasts can observe the asteroids through telescopes or online streams.
