Asteroids|Asteroid researchers even hope that the blow to the moon will be realized.
The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 may collide with the moon on its track. The possibility is about 4 %.
A possible collision would not affect the orbit of the moon, says US Space Administration NASA.
Space telescope James Webb refined the aircraft and features of more than 50 meters of asteroid.
Asteroid researchers are even hoped that this asteroid strikes the moon. Monitoring it would help to see how the globe could protect yourself from a big asteroid strike.
Ison In February, an asteroid -sized asteroid scared asteroid researchers.
Astronomers calculated that asteroid 2024 YR4 could hit the ground At the end of December 2032. Although the probability of the stroke was quite low, just over three percent.
The possibility of the impact shortened to less than 1 % in the calculations and then close to zero.
Now it looks like that same asteroid 2024 YR4 could strike at the end of 2032 instead of the earth, says US Space Administration NASA.
According to Nasa, the probability of this is just under four percent. The impact would not affect the orbit of the moon.
Possible A collision with the moon was revealed as the asteroid began to be monitored more closely.
Tarkan Space Telescope James Webb mirrors were directed toward the asteroid at the beginning of March.
Webb received a refined estimate of the size of Kivivuori. At its widest, the asteroid is about 53-67 meters. The previous estimate was 40-90 meters.
Webb’s thermal cameras also measured the surface temperature and composition. With this information, the calculations of the asteroid track were refined.
After the webb’s observations, the probability of 2024 YR4 colliding with the moon rose from February 1.7 % to the current 3.8 %.
Esa’s estimate of the attack on the moon is of the same order as Nasan, about four percent.
Asteroids is in the size range of more than ten storeys. In this case, meters also matter.
If the threatening asteroid size is more than 50 meters, NASA and the European Space Agency Esa will begin to develop special plans to prevent impact.
If the asteroid still had a chance of more than a percentage of the country, there would be immediately planning flights to change the asteroid track. That’s what says Richard Moissl Comment planetary defense from the department to AFP news agency.
Over the years, several ideas have been tuned to combat asteroids. For example, nuclear weapons and strong lasers are on the list.
Asteroids Researchers even hope that the blow to the moon will come true. It would be relatively easy to follow. It would help space organizations to consider how to survive the asteroid strike on the earth.
According to Nasa, 202 4yr4 is constantly moving away from the globe.
