Yes because large asteroids heading for earth are Near Earth Objects and if they were to hit many people can lose their lives.
Gravity acts on all objects with mass. In the context of the Earth, gravity mostly acts on the Earth itself and objects on or near its surface.
NASA's Near Earth Objects program is one group that tracks object that pass near the Earth (you might have expected that from the name).
Gravity is the force that pulls everything towards the center of the Earth. This force is created by the mass of the Earth and all objects on or near its surface.
The gravitational force of attraction between the moon and an objecton or near its surface is 0.165 of the force between the Earth and thesame object on or near Earth's surface.
At this time, there are no known asteroids on a collision course with Earth. Scientists continuously monitor near-Earth objects to identify potential threats and are working on developing ways to mitigate any potential impacts.

Near-Earth Objects. Comets, meteors, and other things in space that are near Earth.

Objects that fall near Earth's surface are rarely in free fall because air resistance exerts a force on the falling objects. This force opposes the force of gravity, resulting in a net force that is not solely directed downwards. As a result, the objects do not accelerate at the full rate of gravity, causing their motion to deviate from true free fall.
Gravity pulls objects near Earth toward the center of the planet. This force causes objects to fall downward when dropped and keeps everything anchored to the Earth's surface. Essentially, gravity acts to minimize the distance between mass and the Earth's core.

Gravity is not unique to the Earth. All matter has gravity and all matter attracts all other matter. Since the Earth has mass it also has a gracvitational field associated with it.
The acceleration of objects in free fall near Earth is approximately 9.8 m/s^2, commonly denoted as "g." This acceleration is due to the force of gravity pulling the objects towards the center of the Earth.

It is not possible to provide a comprehensive list of all objects near Earth. However, some common examples include the Earth's natural satellites (like the Moon), artificial satellites, space debris, spacecraft, asteroids, and comets.
