Asteroid's chance of hitting Earth in 2032 not high

What are the chances an asteroid will impact Earth in 2032?
February, headlines around the world buzzed about the potential for an asteroid to hit the Earth in 2023—specifically, asteroid 2024 YR4. The chance of this impact rose to a high of 3.1 percent on Feb.
Astronomers see lower risk of newly found asteroid hitting Earth
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 130-300 feet (40-90 meters) wide.
Could an asteroid hit Earth in 2032? Here's what to know about the potential "city killer."
"An asteroid this size impacts Earth on average every few thousand years and could cause severe damage to a local region," the European Space Agency said.
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.
This Asteroid Had a 3 Percent Chance of Hitting Earth and Now It’s Zero
For a brief moment, it looked like asteroid 2024 YR4 had a real shot at hitting Earth in 2032. With its impact probability climbing to a record-breaking 3%, astronomers scrambled to refine its trajectory using some of the most powerful telescopes on the planet.
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.
Asteroid 2024 YR4’s odds of hitting Earth in 2032 are now effectively zero
New data shrank the odds that this asteroid will hit Earth, but astronomers will continue to study it. Here’s what you need to know.
Odds of asteroid hitting Earth in 2032 fall. What scientists now say about 2024 YR4
Chances an asteroid may hit Earth in 2032 dropped to near zero, astronomers say. Here's what to know about 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.
The riskiest asteroid on record now has near-zero chance of hitting Earth
The chances of asteroid 2024 YR4’s odds of colliding with Earth in 2032 have dropped to nearly zero, thanks to new observations of the space rock.
