Asteroid 2018 NW has a diameter of around 16 meters, which is around as much as 100 hot dogs. But hold onto your buns because it isn't going to hit us – though it may fly close.

    Those science titles keep getting dumber. I think last year there was an asteroid which was the size of “half a giraffe”.

      The metric half-giraffe is the accepted unit, I thought.
