A 427-foot asteroid shaped like a pyramid is set to whiz past Earth on Sunday.

The space rock will fly harmlessly past our planet. Asteroid VH5 2019 will make its flyby at about 17.9 lunar distances on Dec. 8, according to the Center for Near-Earth Object Studies at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The asteroid has dimensions of 57 meters (187 feet) by 130 meters (426.5 feet), NASA says.

At almost 18 lunar distances - which is about 238,000 miles - we're talking over 4 million miles away. NOT close.
