Huge Asteroid Could Hit Earth in 2032. Here's How We Could Stop It
Nuclear missiles, the DART mission and space lasers have been floated as potential solutions to the YR4 asteroid.
An asteroid could collide with Earth: What could happen if it hits, and should we worry?
An asteroid could hit Earth, but scientists are continuing to gather data to understand its trajectory and potential impact to Earth.
Don’t panic, but an asteroid has a 1.9% chance of hitting Earth in 2032
The asteroid warning network is affiliated with the United Nations. Officials activate the IAWN when an asteroid bigger than 10 meters has a greater than 1 percent chance of striking Earth within the next 20 years. The risk of 2024 YR4 meets this threshold.
Near-Earth asteroid Bennu could hit Earth in 157 years and set off a global ‘impact winter,’ study says
Near-Earth asteroid Bennu has a slim chance of colliding with Earth in 2182. If it does, the impact could trigger a global winter that affects our planet for years.
NASA: Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a chance of hitting Earth, scientists actively monitoring
Experts are tracking asteroid 2024 YR4, which has a 1.2% chance of impacting Earth in 2032. Observations continue to refine its path.
