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.
House-Sized Asteroid Approaching Earth Tomorrow, NASA Reports
NASA is tracking a house-sized asteroid set to whiz past Earth tomorrow at a thundering 29,304 miles per hour. The space rock—named "2025 DJ22"—is estimated by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to be approximately 47 feet across, making it about the size of a house.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 poses threat to Moon, NASA says chances of collision happens once 1,000 years. All details
YR4: Asteroid 2024 YR4 might spare Earth but it poses a threat to Moon. The asteroid that had a good chance of crashing onto Earth, may well end up colliding with the moon. NASA has calculated Asteroid 2024 YR4's chances of colliding with moon.
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.
Odds of asteroid YR4 2024 hitting Earth in 2032 go up, then down again, in latest NASA analysis
YR4 has a very small chance of striking Earth when its orbit briefly intersects our planet's in December 2032.
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.
Odds of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth drop from record high, NASA says of 'city killer'
NASA announced Wednesday that the odds of the up to 300-foot-wide asteroid hitting Earth dropped from record highs. See where they stand
Asteroid alert: This 42-foot space rock is about to come very close to Earth today, NASA reports
NASA reports that Asteroid 2025 DM7 will make its closest approach on 4 March 2025, coming within 294,000 miles of Earth.
NASA reduces likelihood of asteroid impacting earth to 1.5%
NASA said Wednesday that new data collected overnight cut the probability of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth to 1.5%. The chances of impact had been 3.1%.
NASA looking for ways to destroy asteroid that could strike Earth, kill city
NASA and other space agencies are attempting to come up with a way to destroy a massive asteroid unlikely to strike Earth.
Asteroid's chance of hitting Earth in 2032 not high after all
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 40 to 90 metres wide.
