EARTH

NASA’s impact monitoring system has detected a total of 31 potential collisions from an approaching asteroid. Based on the asteroid’s size and velocity, it could cause an impact event if it collides with Earth.

Several residents in Florida spotted a bright meteor streaking across the sky. Video of the incident showed the object turning into a bright fireball before disappearing.

CNEOS estimated the asteroid has a diameter of about 98 feet, making it slightly longer than the distances between baseball diamond bases.

NASA has detected the biggest asteroid that will approach Earth this month.

In a new study, scientists were able to identify the Atlantic Ocean as the likely impact zone of the planet-killer asteroid that NASA is currently monitoring.

NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) is currently tracking two asteroids that are expected to approach the planet next week.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has detected a new massive asteroid that has a non-zero chance of hitting Earth 30 years from today.

A market research study predicted that the asteroid mining industry would jumpstart the ability of humans to colonize planets.

An astronomer recently discussed the most common myths about the Moon and how anyone can debunk them in the comfort of their own homes.

NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) is currently monitoring a massive asteroid that will visit Earth’s neighborhood this week.

An expert explained how plants and trees were able to survive through one of the most devastating extinction-level events that happened on Earth. This event took place 66 million years ago when a planet-killer asteroid collided with Earth.

A new study on the environment warned that climate change is directly preventing Earth’s ability to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Authors of the study warned that if this continues, the effects of climate change on the planet will accelerate significantly.

NASA warned that a massive asteroid is currently headed for Earth. Based on the data collected by the agency’s Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), the asteroid could cause an impact event on Earth if it directly collides with the planet.

NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and South Korea have teamed up to launch a new constellation of satellite-mounted instruments designed to monitor pollution from space. According to NASA, the project will enable agencies to monitor and track Earth’s air quality every hour.

Samples collected by the Apollo missions revealed that the Moon contains traces of Theia, the large Mars-sized object believed to have collided with Earth billions of years ago. Many scientists believe that this planetary collision led to the formation of the Moon.

A group of scientists was able to uncover the mystery behind the decreasing brightness of the red supergiant star Betelgeuse. Based on their findings, this massive star, which is relatively near Earth, is not in danger of going supernova anytime soon.

NASA’s asteroid tracking system has detected a total of four space rocks that are expected to approach Earth tomorrow. According to the data collected by the agency’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies, the approaching asteroids follow Earth-crossing orbits.

A university professor warned that an impact event on Earth caused by a massive asteroid is inevitable. For the expert, this is the main reason why international agencies should support the asteroid deflection missions currently being planned by NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA).

A full supermoon is about to debut tomorrow. Known as the Worm Moon, it marks the second closest supermoon of the year.

NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) is currently tracking a massive asteroid that’s expected to approach the Earth next month -- but it will fly at a safe distance from the Earth.

NASA warned that an asteroid capable of causing a violent airburst in the sky would approach Earth this month.
