Signs of the Covid-19 pandemic are everywhere and even astronomers have discovered a 'mask' in space.
The Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico is tracking an asteroid named 1998 OR2 and recently, they have taken its radar image. Surprisingly, this picture makes the planet look like a mask.
Asteroids will soon come close to Earth, but will pass at a safe distance. The photo was shared by Central Florida University on April 23, which attracted a lot of attention.

'The small-scale terrain features such as hills and rocky ridges at one end of the asteroid 1998 OR2 are scientifically attractive,' says scientific researcher Anne Virkki. 'But because we're all thinking about Covid-19, these characteristics make it look like 1998 OR2 is wearing a mask.'
In fact, a lot of interesting radar photos of asteroids have been taken in the past. Some look like a hippopotamus, and an asteroid is like a messy dice. Obviously, the faint images obtained give the viewer enough raw material to unleash to imagine.
Asteroid Storm is an Asteroids-like game with 32-bit 3d graphics and nasty enemy AI. The game contains an infinite amount of computer-generated levels as well as several levels with written. prMac.com Limmared, Sweden - FreneticGamez is proud to announce the release of Asteroid: Space Defence 1.0, a classic space shooter for Mac OS X. The game challenges players to complete each wave by shooting down all the asteroids and other enemies and also try to collect the usefull stars you will need for upgrades of your ship. The Asteroid Grand Challenge, one part of the asteroid initiative, expands the agency’s efforts beyond traditional boundaries and encourages partnerships and collaboration with a variety of organizations. The algorithm contests were managed and executed by NASA’s Center of Excellence for Collaborative Innovation (CoECI).
Radar observations help scientists learn more about asteroids and their orbits. And this will not be the last visit of this masked asteroid to Earth.

'In 2079, the asteroid 1998 OR2 will pass through Earth nearly 3.5 times more than this year, so it is important to know its exact trajectory,' said scientist Flaviane Venditti. .
The asteroid 1998 OR2 is about 2 km across, and its closest approach to Earth is on April 29. If lucky, the scientists will get a clearer view of the 'mask', or rather the surface of the asteroid.
