A newly discovered asteroid named 2024 YR4 now has a 2.2% chance of affecting Earth in 2032 after recent observations.
Asteroid Bennu wasn’t what NASA expected. Instead of a smooth surface for sample collection, OSIRIS-REx encountered a chaotic, rocky terrain that made its mission incredibly difficult. This video ...
Scientists from South Korea have conducted simulations of a potential impact of the asteroid Bennu on Earth in the year 2182.
The Earth could be sent into an "impact winter" if it is hit by the 500 metre wide Bennu asteroid where dust would be kicked ...
Researchers predict that a collision with the asteroid Bennu would plunge Earth into a year's long 'impact winter'.
Rock and dust samples brought back to Earth from the asteroid Bennu contain organic matter and a variety of minerals crucial to the emergence of life ...
