The asteroid named "2024 YR4," which is about the size of a football field, now has a 2.3% chance of hitting Earth in 2032.

Astronomers have upped the odds of an asteroid called 2024 YR4 striking Earth, albeit in 2032, but warn that it will most ...

Astronomers are keeping a close watch on a newly discovered near‐Earth asteroid that, while highly unlikely to hit Earth, remains under intense international scrutiny.

Last week, the European Space Agency (ESA) gave the asteroid a 1.3 per cent chance of hitting the Earth on Dec. 22, 2032.

NASA warns that the odds of the 'city-destroying' asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth have increased to a one in 43 chance.

NASA’s Centre for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) has calculated a 2.3% chance—roughly a 1-in-43 probability—that asteroid ...

Astronomers have raised the likelihood of “city-killer” asteroid 2024 YR4 colliding with Earth to 2.3 per cent, or roughly ...

SCIENTISTS have unveiled several options to stop 2024 YR4, an asteroid the size of a football pitch from smashing into Earth.

"An asteroid this size impacts Earth on average every few thousand years and could cause severe damage to a local region," the European Space Agency said.

YR4 should remain hovering around 1%, should humanity choose to, we have already proven we can nudge asteroids out of our way ...

据外媒报道，一颗于2024年底被新发现的，约有一个足球场大的小行星，经过科学家1个多月的追踪及对其轨迹的计算，发现其在2032年撞击地球的概率为1.6%。这是科学家发现的首颗已知与地球相撞概率超过1%的大尺寸小行星。 NASA公布的小行星“2024 ...
