Car-size asteroid 2024 JN16 gives Earth a close shave - Animation 

What happens if it passes closer to the earth? Does it skim the atmosphere and then continue on its path away from us? Would it appear as a visible streak?

I wish they would actually tell people minimum distance to the Earth "Human" units - it would stop panic 0.002 Astronomical Units ≈ 299,195.74 Kilometres but that's as good as you get from this video one frame showing 0.002au is not ealy any use

Would like to see the moon in the animation. It helps in visualization.
