The asteroid 2024 YR4 shifted its course from Earth but brought fresh dangers to the Moon. Astronomers have tracked this space rock, which scientists first discovered in late December 2024. Research ...

A “city-killer” asteroid previously thought to be on a collision course with the Earth could smash into the Moon instead, new data suggests. Asteroid 2024 YR4 caused global concern after its discovery ...

But NASA anticipated the wide chunk of rock would change course in the next ... the most likely recorded asteroid to hit the Earth. The rate places its risk of collision above Asteroid 99942 ...

A massive asteroid that sent shockwaves through the scientific community just weeks ago—after it was briefly deemed a potential threat to Earth—may now be on a collision course with the Moon.

Meanwhile, NASA continues to monitor other potential asteroid threats through Sentry, its automated collision monitoring system that scans the most current asteroid catalog for possibilities of ...

This may not sound like a lot, until you realise that that is a 1 in 32 chance of collision ... There is a possibility that the asteroid could be nudged off course by collisions with other ...

The asteroid’s impact probability made it a 3 on the Torino Impact Hazard Scale, which measures the danger posed by asteroids. Torino 3s have “a 1% or greater chance of collision capable of lo ...

But both percentages rise above the 2.7% chance of collision once associated with an asteroid discovered in 2004 called Apophis, making 2024 YR4 the most significant space rock to be spotted ...

SPACE (KXAN) — We’re seven years away from a possible asteroid impact on Earth ... Current calculations give a 1% or greater chance of collision capable of localized destruction.

NASA has downgraded the risk of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth in 2032 to 1.5 per cent, or 1-in-67, down from a high of a 1-in-32 chance, which was the highest odds yet of collision. Astronomers ...

A Chilean space telescope has captured striking images of YR4 2024, the “city-killer” asteroid that’s potentially on a collision course with Earth. “Only a few asteroids have been studied ...
