New asteroid has a chance of impacting Earth in 2032
The odds of a recently discovered massive asteroid hitting Earth within the next seven years are shockingly not zero. Dubbed 2024 YR4, the approximately 150-foot-wide asteroid was first spotted by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) on Dec.
Building-sized asteroid has a small chance of hitting Earth in 2032
The asteroid is unlikely to be cause for concern, but its detection has triggered planetary defence response procedures for the first time
Newly Spotted Asteroid Has a Tiny Chance of Hitting Earth in 2032
A newly discovered asteroid has a tiny chance of smacking Earth in 2032, space agency officials said Wednesday. Scientists put the odds of a strike at slightly more than 1%. “We are not worried at all,
Astronomers discover 196-foot asteroid with 1-in-83 chance of hitting Earth in 2032
A 196-foot-wide asteroid has a 1-in-83 chance of striking Earth in 2032. An expert tells Space.com where this asteroid could impact our planet and what level of destruction it could cause.
Asteroid warning issued as 'hazardous' rock the size of a 20-story building headed for Earth in 2032
A newly discovered asteroid has a 1-in-83 chance of colliding with Earth in December 2032, astronomers have warned. The space rock, designated 2024 YR4, measures approximately 60 metres across - roughly the size of a 20-storey building.
NASA finds building blocks for life in Bennu asteroid sample
Historic asteroid sample reveals the ‘building blocks of life are in fact extraterrestrial in origin,’ scientists say
Scientists have detected organic compounds and minerals necessary for life in the samples collected by the OSIRIS-REx mission from a near-Earth asteroid named Bennu.
Scientists find traces of life’s building blocks in historic asteroid samples
It took a while for scientists to gain access to the samples that NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission took from the asteroid Bennu, but the wait is proving to be worth it. A new study published January 29 in Nature describes an unexpected discovery in the material delivered by OSIRIS-REx: residues of compounds left over by the evaporation of liquid water.
