Bennu, Earth and asteroid

Near-Earth asteroid Bennu could hit Earth in 157 years and set off a global ‘impact winter,’ study says
Near-Earth asteroid Bennu has a slim chance of colliding with Earth in 2182. If it does, the impact could trigger a global winter that affects our planet for years.
Scientists predict devastation if asteroid Bennu strikes Earth in 2182
The rocky object called Bennu is classified as a near-Earth asteroid, currently making its closest approach to Earth every six years at about 186,000 miles (299,000 km) away. It might come even closer in the future,
Here’s What Would Happen If Asteroid Bennu Hit Earth
Although the chances of impact are slim, Bennu is still one of the most potentially hazardous known asteroids in our solar system, and we need to be prepared for what could come. A first-of-its-kind study simulated the planet-wide damage that would be caused by Bennu’s unlikely impact,
Asteroid Bennu Has A Tiny Chance Of Hitting Earth – Which Could Start A Global Winter
Bennu has a diameter of roughly 500 meters (1,640 feet) and has a 1 in 2,700 chance of hitting our planet in September 2182. Bennu is not on the scale of the Chicxulub impactor – which hit the Earth at the end of the Cretaceous and spelled the end of the non-avian dinosaurs and many other species – but it is also not small.
Scientists Simulated Bennu Crashing to Earth in September 2182. It's Not Pretty.
Simulations of a potential impact by a hill-sized space rock event next century have revealed the rough ride humanity would be in for, hinting at what it'd take for us to survive such a catastrophe.
Science speaks: What would happen if an asteroid hit the Earth?
In recent days, the minimal risk of impact from asteroid 2024 YR4 has caught the attention of many astronomy enthusiasts. Specifically, there is a 1.5 percent chance that it will i
Eiffel Tower-sized asteroid set to hit Earth in 2082 could result in 'prolonged winter'
NASA classifies Bennu as a medium-sized asteroid, measuring about one-third of a mile (500 metres) across. While far smaller than the six-mile-wide asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, it still poses a significant threat.
