While NASA has been working to avert any such disaster, participants in the summary pointed out the main problem they might face if an asteroid impact becomes likely. The simulation had an ...

Slower moving particles blasted out by the DART impact on the asteroid Dimorphos could create meteor showers on Mars — but it's unlikely they'll cause meteor showers over Earth.

"Observations made overnight on Feb. 19-20 of asteroid 2024 YR4 have further decreased its chance of Earth impact on Dec. 22, 2032, to 0.3%," said a blog post from NASA on Thursday.

Asteroid 2024 YR4, measuring 130 to 300 feet wide, currently has a 1.5% chance of impacting Earth in 2032. The odds of impact have decreased from initial estimates, and NASA expects them to ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA has found Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a slightly higher chance of hitting the moon in 2032.

On Feb. 18, 2025, NASA updated the probability of asteroid "2024 YR4" impacting Earth on Dec. 22, 2032, from 2.6% to 3.1%. The European Space Agency (ESA) also updated its estimate of the ...

On Feb. 7, the asteroid’s chances of hitting our planet grew to 2.3 percent, and as of Feb. 18, there’s a 3.1 percent chance that 2024 YR4 will impact Earth on Dec. 22, 2032. This means the ...

The asteroid 2024 YR4 is now rated at Level 0 out of 10 on the Torino Impact Hazard Scale, meaning, "The likelihood of a collision is zero, or is so low as to be effectively zero.". A similar ...

The probability of a "city-killer" asteroid hitting Earth in 2032 just increased to 1 in 32, or 3.1%, according to NASA, and a chilling animation depicting the apocalyptic impact that the asteroid ...
