Asteroid 2024 YR4: Possible Earth Impact in 2032 Sparks Scientific Scrutiny
Astronomers are closely monitoring an asteroid named 2024 YR4 with a potential 1.3% chance of colliding with Earth on December 22, 2032. Measuring between 40 to 90 meters across, this space rock mirrors the size and impact capability of the meteorite from the Tunguska event in 1908. With its orbit difficult to predict, efforts from global scientist communities are underway to track and possibly prepare a spacecraft-based response to assess any potential threat.
