YR4 became the highest-rated asteroid predicted to strike Earth, and although predictions for impact have lowered, not enough ...

NASA is tracking a bus-sized asteroid zipping past the Earth at nearly 16,000 miles per hour today. The asteroid, known as "2025 DM7," is estimated to be about 42 feet across and soared past our ...

It measures 130 to 300 feet across, a pebble compared to the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs, which is estimated to have been six to nine miles in length. On the other hand, on Feb. 15, 2013, an ...

Astronomers believe thousands of large undiscovered asteroids, that could cause regional damage, may be in space.

The space rock caused quite a stir after astronomers first spotted it last year on a trajectory bringing it uncomfortably ...

The potential risk of Asteroid 2024 YR4 impacting Earth in 2032 dropped to nearly zero following new observations that helped better predict the asteroid's trajectory.

NASA is monitoring three aircraft-sized asteroids that will zoom past the Earth later today at around 19,000 to 22,200 miles per hour.
