'City-killer' asteroid has a 1-in-43 chance of smashing into Earth in 2032, NASA says
A space rock dubbed 2024 YR4 has a roughly 2.3% chance of smashing into our planet, NASA scientists announced.
Why the Odds of an Asteroid Striking Earth in 2032 Keep Going Up (and Down)
NASA and European scientists explain how they calculate the probability of the space rock 2024 YR4 impacting our planet, and why it’s not yet time to worry.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 Is Now More Likely To Hit Earth In 2032; How Safe Are We?
ESA is closely monitoring the recently discovered asteroid #2024YR4. The asteroid has an almost 99% chance of safely passing Earth in 2032, but a possible impact cannot yet be entirely ruled out. 2024 YR4 is estimated to be between 40 m and 100 m wide. https://t.co/Ab8G1WH2Wp — ESA Operations (@esaoperations) January 29, 2025
Scientists taking 'active measures' for asteroid with slight chance of hitting earth.
YR4 has just above a 1% chance of crashing into Earth in 2032, which is why astronomers and space agencies are paying attention to it.
Chances of a big asteroid strike on Earth just doubled. Here’s why you shouldn’t be too worried.
By comparison, the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs and 70% of all other animal species on Earth around 65 million years ago was roughly 6 to 9 miles wide. Other notable impact events include one in 1908,
