Asteroid 2024 YR4 made headlines earlier this year when its probability of impacting Earth in 2032 rose as high as 3%. While an Earth impact has now been ruled out, the asteroid's story continues.

New simulations reveal that the infamous "city killer" asteroid 2024 YR4 could shower Earth with "bullet-like" debris if it hits the moon in seven years' time, potentially triggering an eye ...

An asteroid that, until a few months ago, was believed to be a threat to Earth is increasingly looking like it could crash into the Moon in 2032.

Asteroid 2024 YR4, initially considered a potential threat to Earth, is now more likely to hit the moon in 2032. The asteroid, about the size of a 10-story building, has a 4.3% chance of lunar ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA has found Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a slightly higher chance of hitting the moon in 2032.

An asteroid that set off a global effort to determine if it would impact Earth in 2032 is no longer a threat to our planet, however, chances of a hit to the Moon are increasing.

NASA said that info from the James Webb Telescope showed that asteroid 2024 YR4 is the size of a 10-story building and increased its likelihood to make impact with the moon.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 won't hit Earth in December 2032, but that doesn't mean we're out of the woods forever. Researchers warn that "city killer" space rock could approach our planet again in the ...

Asteroids’ orbits around the sun may put them in collision paths with inner planets. We may have had a near-miss, but asteroids can pass by the Earth undetected.
