NASA, Earth and 2024 YR4

NASA: Asteroid 2024 YR4 not a threat to Earth. But the moon is still in the region of uncertainty
NASA has significantly lowered the risk of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting the Earth in 2032 through recent calculations. The moon however, may not be in the clear.
Asteroid Alert! Two Over 100-Foot Asteroids Heading Towards Earth Tomorrow, NASA Issues Warning
NASA warns of two giant asteroids hurtling towards Earth tomorrow. Will they pass safely, or is a collision imminent?
Asteroid 2024 YR4 no longer poses significant threat to Earth in 2032, NASA's latest analysis determines
The 2024 YR4 asteroid, which is nearly the size of a football field, now has roughly a 0.004% chance of hitting Earth in about eight years, according to the space agency's latest calculations. The Center for Near-Earth Object Studies previously projected a 3% chance of the asteroid striking our planet before lowering the chance to 0.28% last week.
Will an asteroid hit Earth? Likely not. NASA gives 'all clear' as odds fall to near zero
The space rock caused quite a stir after astronomers first spotted it last year on a trajectory bringing it uncomfortably close to Earth in 2032.

NASA releases new details on ‘city-killer’ asteroid — and the moon may be at risk of being struck
The rock tour has officially been canceled. After two months of observations, NASA scientists have officially declared Earth safe from “city-killer” asteroid 2024 YR4.
Asteroid 2024 YR 4 no longer has chance of hitting Earth in 2032, says NASA
NASA announced Monday that the asteroid, named 2024 YR 4, no longer poses a “significant threat” to Earth in 2032 or beyond. “NASA analysis drops asteroid 2024 YR4's impact probability to 0.004%, meaning it is expected to safely pass by Earth in 2032,” NASA’s Planetary Defense Coordination Office posted on X Monday.
Odds of asteroid YR4 2024 hitting Earth in 2032 go up, then down again, in latest NASA analysis
YR4 has a very small chance of striking Earth when its orbit briefly intersects our planet's in December 2032.
Odds of 'city killer' asteroid 2024 YR4 fall once again, now to 0.28%, NASA says
The odds of asteroid 2024 YR4 striking Earth have fallen once again, now to 0.28%, NASA announced on Thursday.
Why NASA keeps changing the probability of an asteroid impacting Earth in 2032
Sensational "city killer" headlines aside, NASA and the European Space Agency reported the asteroid "has a very small chance" of Earth impact.
Asteroid's chance of hitting Earth in 2032 not high after all
New observations of a small asteroid discovered in December have led astronomers to conclude that the chances of it striking Earth are almost zero, after earlier data had indicated a higher risk of a collision with this space rock about 40 to 90 metres wide.
