Astronomers have been keeping a close eye on an asteroid between 130 and 300 feet long that has a very small chance of crashing into Earth in 2032.

And on the slim chance that the asteroid does indeed pose a threat, it may be time for Earth to implement its planetary defense strategies that agencies like NASA and the European Space Agency ...

Feb. 15 (UPI) --NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has declared a 1.6% chance that a large asteroid would strike the Earth on Dec. 22, 2032. Scientists at NASA and the European Space Agency are ...

The NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite will provide highly detailed images of Earth's surface, detecting movements as small as fractions of an inch.

Currently, no other known large asteroids have an impact probability above 1%,” said NASA in a release. While there’s still a nearly 99 percent chance that 2024 YR4 won’t impact Earth ...

The asteroid was first detected on December 27, 2024, and is between 130 to 300 feet wide, NASA's risk list of near-Earth objects shows. It is currently the most dangerous space object near Earth ...
