However, "2025 HP" is not the only space rock flying nearby. Today, a separate 40-foot, bus-sized asteroid named "2025 HN4" ...

Scientists leveraged a global camera network and doorbell cameras to track dozens of meteorites to their asteroid families.

There will be no threat to Earth or the Moon’s orbit if the asteroid strikes the Moon, according to reports citing scientists. However, this could also help scientists observe impact physics and ...

Is asteroid 2024 YR4 heading toward the Moon? No need to worry just yet, though. The Moon is regularly hit by thousands of impacts, and it has already survived far worse collisions than the one ...

A new study challenges the idea that dinosaurs were declining before the asteroid impact. Researchers at UCL Earth Sciences examined thousands of fossils. They found fewer accessible rocks from ...

A new study challenges the idea that they were already weakened before the devastating impact. The study is based on a meticulous examination of over 8,000 North American fossils dating from the last ...

The menacing asteroid that wiped out non-avian dinosaurs left a colossal marine crater in what's now the Yucatan Peninsula. But after analyzing deeply drilled rock core from the impact site ...

Around 66 million years ago, a massive asteroid smashed into Earth, ending the reign of the dinosaurs. For nearly three decades, scientists have debated whether dinosaur species were actually ...

But getting an asteroid from the Oort Cloud to Mars would cost 15,000 years with the current technology. Even though it is the long-term approach, Dr Czechowski's idea is pointing out one possible ...

Follow-up observations then revealed that an impact of the asteroid could not be ruled out during its next but one encounter. For several weeks, and thus for an unusually long time, the asteroid ...

Initially, it was believed the 'city-killer' asteroid had a chance of crashing into Earth on December 22, 2032. But further analysis dropped the Earth impact probability below 1% in late February ...

Among the 8,000 fossil records examined, Ceratopsians, including horned dinosaurs like Triceratops, were the most common, which may indicate a thriving population prior to the asteroid impact.
