An asteroid on a collision course with Earth is expected on November 2, one day before the US election, NASA data has revealed.
Dubbed 2018VP1 by NASA scientists, the asteroid is 2 metres in diameter and 16,000kg.
NASA says there could be three potential impacts "based on 21 observations spanning 12.968 days".
Fortunately, the asteroid has a 0.41 percent chance of hitting the planet, according to data from the Centre for Near-Earth Objects Studies at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
The asteroid was first spotted at Palomar Observatory in California in 2018.
