But according to new calculations, there's an even smaller chance that it might crash into the moon instead. The potentially hazardous asteroid measures an estimated 180 feet (55 meters ...
How is the asteroid risk being managed? Until recently, we did daily measurements with different telescopes. Then, we had to pause a little bit for one or two days because of the full moon ...
Asteroid 2024 YR4 is on a potential crash course with Earth, but there’s a very slight chance the moon could take the hit. Based on current observations, there is a 2.1 per cent chance that the ...
On the world's first Asteroid Day, Nina Burleigh discovers that Nasa has already commissioned a team of 'planetary defenders' ...
It would hit the surface very fast, because there is no atmosphere on the Moon to slow it down (Picture: AP) The ‘city killer’ asteroid (possibly) heading our way might spare us and slam into ...
There's a small chance that the asteroid could collide with Moon. While scientists have doubled the odds of asteroid 2024 YR4 colliding with Earth in 2032, new calculations show that there was a ...
Now, new calculations by University of Arizona astronomer David Rankin have reportedly found that there is a slim chance of about 0.3 per cent of the 90-metre-wide asteroid crashing onto the Moon.
An asteroid originally thought to have a higher chance of colliding with Earth might instead strike the Moon, according to new calculations. NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS ...
