NASA confirms asteroid 2024 YR4 poses no threat to Earth
Luckily, and as expected by many experts, that chance of hitting has dropped to nearly 0% as more observations came in. The asteroid was originally discovered in Dec. 2024 and the International Asteroid Warning Network (IAWN ) — a global collaboration started in 2013 to monitor and track potential Earth impactors — issued a notification alerting the astronomical community that it had a greater than 1% chance of hitting us in seven years.
