CODYVILLE PLANTATION, Maine (WABI) - NASA has confirmed meteorites fell in Washington County in late February. They say it happened near Codyville Plantation and describe it as a ‘low-mass meteorite fall’. NASA says there were widespread reports of a sonic boom just after 8 p.m. February 21st.

The study of the universe is a subject that never ceases to amaze the scientific community. If being able to know what is beyond our atmosphere has been something that has always b

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.

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.

NASA reports that Asteroid 2025 DM7 will make its closest approach on 4 March 2025, coming within 294,000 miles of Earth.

YR4 has a very small chance of striking Earth when its orbit briefly intersects our planet's in December 2032.

A young man shared how a meteorite shocked the people of the Eastern Cape in Jeffrey’s Bay as it hit the ocean. Residents in the area shared their accounts.

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.

NASA has said Earth will likely be spared by a deadly Big Ben-sized asteroid and predicts it could smash into the Moon instead in a dramatic collision. The space agency feared the chance of a
