On Feb. 18, NASA scientists predicted a 3.1% chance of the asteroid hitting our planet on Dec. 22, 2032. Then the odds dropped to about 1.5%. Then, in an update a couple of days later, they ...
Nasa is monitoring asteroid 2024 YR4, which has a 1.5% chance of hitting Earth by 2032. Measuring between 130 and 300 feet wide, the asteroid could impact a major city, endangering millions.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 has grabbed headlines lately, after NASA calculated a 1-in-32 chance of an impact in 2032 – the highest chance ever for an asteroid of hazardous size. Thankfully, new ...
Asteroid 2024 YR4, measuring 130 to 300 feet, is predicted to closely pass earth in 2032, with Mumbai and Kolkata among the potential impact zones. Nasa has lowered the strike probability to 1.5 ...

NASA gave the all-clear Monday on an asteroid that previously had a chance of colliding with Earth in 2032. While its odds had briefly risen to a record high of 3.1%, they have now dropped to near ...
No, it's unlikely 2024 YR4 will hit the Earth when it passes by on Dec. 22, 2032, updated astronomer predictions say. The probability of impact initially was revised upward twice to a record 3.1% ...
At one point, the odds of a strike in 2032 were as high as about 3% and topped the world’s asteroid-risk lists. ESA has since lowered the odds to 0.001%. NASA had it down to 0.0027% — meaning ...
“We are not expecting the impact probability to rise back above 1 per cent for the close approach with Earth in 2032,” says Richard Moissl at the European Space Agency (ESA). “The most ...
