200-foot-wide asteroid could threaten satellites, study finds

PARABNORMAL NEWS — Remember that 200-foot-wide asteroid that had a high probability of hitting Earth? Well, not so much. It’s now more likely to hit the moon. But satellites aren’t out of dodge.

Should asteroid 2024 YR4 smash into the Moon in late 2032, researchers say the gigantic explosion would send debris streaming towards Earth that would threaten satellites and create a spectacular meteor shower.

The asteroid is big enough to level a city, but further observations have definitively ruled out a direct hit on Earth. Using observations from telescopes, the odds of it crashing into the Moon are said to be a little over 4%.
