NASA’s asteroid tracker has detected a space rock that’s currently headed towards Earth. According to the space agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the asteroid is approaching Earth at a speed of almost 24,000 miles per hour.
A scientist warned that all life on Earth may soon get wiped out by a massive impact event caused by a killer asteroid. However, despite the serious threat asteroids pose on Earth, the scientist still believes that these space rocks should still be revered.
NASA’s asteroid tracker has detected a total of seven asteroids that will approach Earth this weekend. Based on the sizes of the incoming asteroids, most of them will most likely explode in the sky if they end up colliding with Earth.
The host of NASA’s podcast “On a Mission” admitted in a recent episode that Earth is in the middle of a cosmic shooting gallery of buzzing asteroids. The host also noted that there are yet-to-be-identified monster asteroids in space that are big enough to wipe out cities, countries and even the entire planet.
NASA has spotted a massive asteroid that’s currently headed for Earth. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the approaching asteroid is bigger than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
The European Space Agency (ESA) recently added a new asteroid into its Risk List due to the space rock’s chances of hitting Earth in the future.
A new study on asteroids show that it's possible for humans to survive living in space.
NASA has detected one of the biggest asteroids in its tracker moving towards Earth.
NASA is currently monitoring two asteroids that are currently heading towards Earth. If these asteroids hit the planet, they’ll most likely cause a powerful explosion in the air.
The research scientist and official representative for famed UFOlogist Billy Meier claimed that the information collected by NASA regarding the dangerous asteroid Apophis was wrong. According to the scientist, the space agency previously had inaccurate calculations and predictions regarding the asteroid’s potential Earth impact.
A history expert provided a detailed account of the horrible deaths the dinosaurs went through seconds after Earth was hit by a massive asteroid 66 million years ago. Many of the large animals were boiled alive, crushed to death and pelted by molten rocks during the catastrophic event.
NASA is monitoring a total of eight asteroids that are currently headed for Earth. If these asteroids end up hitting the planet, they will most like burn up in the atmosphere and explode in the sky.
Elon Musk-led SpaceX will collaborate with the U.S space agency NASA to launch an asteroid defense mission called Double Asteroid Redirection Test.
A scientist warned that NASA’s drastic planetary defense strategy against an asteroid impact may not work as planned. According to the scientist, it could even cause multiple asteroid impacts on Earth.
The European Space Agency (ESA) has identified the asteroid with the greatest chance of hitting Earth. Based on the space agency’s calculations, the potential collision between the planet and the approaching asteroid might happen in 2095.
NASA has detected a total of 16 asteroids that are headed for Earth this week. The largest asteroid from the group is bigger than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
Aside from Earth, the Moon is also in danger of getting completely destroyed by a killer asteroid. If this happens, Earth will go through various events that can significantly affect life on the planet.
A new study conducted by researchers from South Africa revealed that an asteroid may have hit Earth 12,800 years ago and caused mass extinctions. The scientists warned that a similar event could happen again if the asteroid Apophis 99942 collides with the planet.
A video simulation showed the devastating events that the dinosaurs suffered through shortly after a massive asteroid crashed on Earth. In just a few hours after impact, the thriving paradise on Earth turned into a hellish environment.
Aside from asteroids and solar storms, it seems there’s a new cosmic threat that Earth should be worried about. According to a research, it is possible for NASA to inadvertently start a zombie outbreak from space.
NASA is currently monitoring five asteroids that are expected to approach Earth this weekend. Based on the sizes of the approaching asteroids, they will most likely explode mid-air if they end up hitting the planet.
A realistic video simulation shows that exactly would happen to Earth if it gets hit by the killer asteroid Apophis. The video was made based on predictions that the massive space rock would collide with the planet in 2036.
