Asteroid 2024 YR4 is on a potential crash course with Earth, but there’s a very slight chance the moon could take the hit. Based on current observations, there is a 2.1 per cent chance that the ...

Now, new calculations by University of Arizona astronomer David Rankin have reportedly found that there is a slim chance of about 0.3 per cent of the 90-metre-wide asteroid crashing onto the Moon.

New calculations suggest that a large asteroid recently predicted to have an increased odds of striking Earth could miss the planet and might instead impact the Moon. Nasa’s Center for Near Earth ...

A large asteroid has been predicted to strike the earth. However, after new calculations, the odds have increased of our planet being missed entirely, and instead it is expected to impact the moon.

An asteroid originally thought to have a higher chance of colliding with Earth might instead strike the Moon, according to new calculations. NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS ...
