Asteroid 2024 yr4 Earth: A giant asteroid (meteorite) in space is moving towards the Earth. This asteroid has increased the concern of scientists. Actually, scientists have expressed the possibility of hitting this giant meteorite land. With which the United Nations (UN) has also come into action. The United Nations astronomers are also keeping their eye on this asteroid.
What about the space agency,
The European Space Agency (ESA) said, “This asteroid is 99 percent likely to pass safely from Earth on December 22, 2032. But even one percent of its collision can not be ignored. ” The agency further said, “Any such conflict can cause a huge devastation on the earth and the countries of South Asia, especially India-Pakistan and its surrounding countries, can come in this destruction.”
It is noteworthy that this asteroid has been named 2024 YR4 by scientists, whose size is between 40 and 90 meters. The ESA said that the possibility of this asteroid safely hit the earth has been estimated at around 1.3 percent. In such a situation, the planetary defense institutions of the United Nations are closely monitoring an asteroid. Astronomers are currently calculating the size and speed of asteroid. It has been given 3 status on the Torino Impact Having Scale.
If the earth collides then the destruction will happen
Experts say that if this estroid collides with the earth, it will have the strength to create a atomic bomb as much as it falls and if it falls in a populated area, it can cause very serious damage. However, it is more likely that 2024 YRR4 will fall into a remote part of the sea or the earth. Currently, this asteroid is far away from the earth and it is difficult to decide what will be the effect in the event of Asteroid colliding.
What scientists say about asteroid,
Dr. Robert Massey of Royal Astronomical Society said, “There is not much worry about it right now, people do not need to panic. In 2022, NASA successfully changed the path of an asteroid through a dart mission. In such a situation, if there is a danger of confrontation of YRR4 from the earth, then the United Nations teams will consider the option to take action on it.
