Stephen Hawking thought an asteroid impact posed the greatest threat to life on Earth.

While the identification has triggered international planetary defense measures, experts say that further observations of the asteroid might drop the impact probability down to zero.

It may sound apocalyptic, but a newly detected asteroid nearly the size of a football field now has a greater than one percent chance of colliding with Earth in about eight years. Such an impact ...

With a diameter similar to that of a football field, the asteroid's approach has prompted NASA and international agencies to closely monitor its trajectory due to its significant impact risk.

"If we don't find that detection, the impact probability will just move slowly as we add more observations," he said. Earth gets clobbered by an asteroid this size every few thousand years with ...

NASA previously estimated that Asteroid 2024 YR4, a nearly 200-foot-wide space rock, has a one-in-83 chance (1.2 percent) of striking our planet. But now, the agency's 'Sentry' Earth Impact ...

Future observations of the asteroid will help scientists determine the likelihood of an impact. The asteroid is estimated to be between 131 and 328 feet (40 and 100 meters) wide. Asteroids of this ...
