It's the direction of the path at the moment of closest approach My bad

Thank you, this was extremely helpful

My bad, I'll try again in classical physics. Thank you.

If an asteroid 2158 miles wide (twice the radius of the moon) with twice the density of the moon (6.68 grams per cubic centimeter) were to come close to hitting earth perfectly parallel to earth's orbit around the sun near the northern hemisphere while it's facing directly opposite to the sun at mach 7 (seven times the speed of sound) but miss by 119450 miles (half the distance from the moon to the earth), exactly how much gravitational influence would that asteroid have on the earth's orbit around the sun and what would happen in terms of tidal movements on earth?
