NASA Scientist Warns, We Can't Stop a Big Asteroid | Gravitas

An asteroid has a one in 83 chance of hitting Earth in just over seven years. While most space rocks pass by harmlessly, this one, known as 2024 YR4, which is about half the size of a football field, is too close for comfort. Here's more.

If all the nations took all the money that they use for war and put their minds together I'm pretty sure this would not be a problem for us.

NASA is closely monitoring asteroid 2024 YR, which has an estimated 2.3% chance of impacting Earth on December 22, 2032. While this probability is higher than previous estimates, it still indicates a nearly 98% chance that the asteroid will not collide with Earth. The asteroid, approximately 300 feet wide, could cause significant localized damage if it were to impact, but it is not large enough to cause a global catastrophe. Currently, there is no cause for public alarm, as the probability of impact remains low, and further observations are expected to refine and likely reduce this risk assessment.

NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) is actively involved in monitoring such near-Earth objects and developing potential mitigation strategies. One notable effort is the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission, which successfully demonstrated the ability to alter an asteroid's path—a technique that may be used to defend the planet in the future.

In summary, while asteroid 2024 YR is being carefully tracked due to its potential risk, current assessments do not warrant immediate concern. NASA and other space agencies continue to observe the asteroid, and further data will help refine predictions and inform any necessary response strategies.

The only sad part about this entire ordeal is we would have to wait 7 excruciating years.
