Researchers discovered a new field of ancient tektites in South Australia, revealing a long-forgotten asteroid impact. These 11-million-year-old glass fragments differ chemically and geographically from other known tektites.

A small asteroid, known as 2025 TF, flew over Antarctica on October 1, 2025, at an altitude of only 266 miles.

An asteroid just flew closer to Earth than many satellites, according to space agencies. The space object, named 2025 TF, zoomed over Antarctica at a distance of just 265 miles above the Earth's surface last Wednesday, Oct. 1, at 8:47 p.m. ET, the European Space Agency said on Monday. The International Space Station orbits at a similar altitude.

Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a 4% chance of colliding with Earth’s moon in 2032, and some scientists are considering whether they should nuke it. The study was recently submitted by over a dozen scientists to arXiv,

A paper from several NASA scientists and other researchers explores whether an asteroid with a 4% chance of hitting the moon in 2032 should be deflected or blown up.

A team of researchers has put forth the idea of launching nuclear devices at asteroid 2024 YR4 with a chance of hitting the moon in 2032.

A plan by a team of scientists suggests using nuclear explosive devices to prevent an asteroid, 2024 YR4, from striking the moon in 2032.

New findings indicate dinosaurs were flourishing just before the asteroid strike. Fossils from New Mexico show diverse and healthy dinosaur populations. This evidence supports the theory that the asteroid impact,

Asteroid 99942 Apophis is set to pass Earth on April 13 2029, coming as close as about 32,000 kilometres from the surface—closer than many geostationary satellites—but current orbit calculations rule out an impact.

What if the biggest asteroid hit us? This video explores the potential impact of a large asteroid collision with Earth. It discusses the consequences, including environmental effects, potential extinction events,
