A newly-discovered asteroid designated 2020 QG flew past Earth at just 0.02 LD / 0.0000623 AU (9 319 km / 5 791 miles) on August 16, 2020.
This is now the closest near-Earth object to flyby Earth so far this year and the closest on record.
Asteroid 2020 QG has an estimated diameter between 2.9 and 6.4 m (9.5 - 20.9 feet) and it belongs to the Apollo group of asteroids.
It was first observed at Palomar Mountain--ZTF, California, U.S. on August 16, about 6 hours after its closest approach.
The object flew past us at 04:09 UTC at a speed (relative to the Earth) of 12.33 km/s.

An asteroid the size of a car flew within about 1,830 miles of Earth this weekend — closer than any known space rock has ever come without crashing into the planet.
A NASA-funded program detected the asteroid, called 2020 QG, six hours after its close approach.
If the asteroid had hit Earth, it probably would have exploded in the atmosphere in an airburst too high up to do any damage on the ground.
But the near miss highlights a major blind spot in Earth's programs to search for dangerous asteroids.
