NASA: Asteroid 2024 YR4 not a threat to Earth. But the moon is still in the region of uncertainty
NASA has significantly lowered the risk of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting the Earth in 2032 through recent calculations. The moon however, may not be in the clear.
Will an asteroid hit Earth? Likely not. NASA gives 'all clear' as odds fall to near zero
The space rock caused quite a stir after astronomers first spotted it last year on a trajectory bringing it uncomfortably close to Earth in 2032.
Astronomers see lower risk of newly found asteroid hitting Earth
New observations of a small asteroid discovered in December have led astronomers to conclude that the chances of it striking Earth are almost zero after earlier data had indicated a higher risk of a collision with this space rock about 130-300 feet (40-90 meters) wide.
Asteroid 2024 YR 4 no longer has chance of hitting Earth in 2032, says NASA
NASA announced Monday that the asteroid, named 2024 YR 4, no longer poses a “significant threat” to Earth in 2032 or beyond. “NASA analysis drops asteroid 2024 YR4's impact probability to 0.004%, meaning it is expected to safely pass by Earth in 2032,” NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office posted on X Monday.
Asteroid 2024 YR4’s odds of hitting Earth in 2032 are now effectively zero
New data shrank the odds that this asteroid will hit Earth, but astronomers will continue to study it. Here’s what you need to know.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 no longer poses significant threat to Earth in 2032, NASA's latest analysis determines
The 2024 YR4 asteroid, which is nearly the size of a football field, now has roughly a 0.004% chance of hitting Earth in about eight years, according to the space agency's latest calculations. The Center for Near-Earth Object Studies previously projected a 3% chance of the asteroid striking our planet before lowering the chance to 0.28% last week.
Odds of asteroid hitting Earth in 2032 fall. What scientists now say about 2024 YR4
Chances an asteroid may hit Earth in 2032 dropped to near zero, astronomers say. Here's what to know about 2024 YR4.
This Asteroid Had a 3 Percent Chance of Hitting Earth and Now It’s Zero
For a brief moment, it looked like asteroid 2024 YR4 had a real shot at hitting Earth in 2032. With its impact probability climbing to a record-breaking 3%, astronomers scrambled to refine its trajectory using some of the most powerful telescopes on the planet.
What are the chances an asteroid will impact Earth in 2032?
