The collision could take place on November 2, 2020 according to information provided by NASA.

While Donald Trump has hinted that he will not quit his post even if he loses the election, NASA has said an asteroid could strike the United States hours before the election. The comet is said to be about to hit the country on November 2, 2020.

Good to know: With only 2.5 meters in diameter, there would be only a 1% chance that it would crash somewhere in the country. The space agency says there are three possible points of impact, without specifying further. Last year, Jim Bridenstine, a NASA administrator, warned asteroids could become the biggest threat to Earth.
