Earth is safe from asteroid 2024 YR4 but could hit Moon

Asteroid 2024 YR4 going to impact Earth and how much damage could it cause? NASA has the answer
YR4 is between 40 and 90 meters in diameter, about the size of a large apartment block. The asteroid 2024 YR4, discovered in December last year, is moving towards Earth. A NASA expert has answered all the questions related to Asteroid 2024 YR4 that has been dominating headlines.
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 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.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 now has a near-zero chance of striking Earth. How many have hit Ohio?
NASA has significantly lowered the risk of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth. Last week, the asteroid had a 3.1% probability of hitting Earth, which set a record level for large space rocks.
As expected, the threat from Asteroid 2024 YR4 has essentially dropped to zero
New information is pushing Asteroid 2024 YR4 off of our front pages. Initial estimates gave it a 2.8% chance of striking Earth in 2032. Now, the European Space Agency says the chance of it striking our planet is down to a paltry 0.
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.
Planet-rattling asteroid has better odds of hitting Earth; what to know about 2024 YR4
The chances of Asteroid 2024 YR4 striking Earth have increased. Here's what that means, and where the potential impact zone could be.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 Update: Scientists Say 'City Killer' No Threat to Earth
Initially, the odds of a collision in 2032 were as high as 3 percent, making it a top concern on global asteroid risk lists.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 is going to miss Earth, but the story doesn’t end there
In reality, even as the near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 was moving away, ground-based telescopes were able to gather enough observations to get a better handle on its orbit. So we can safely take a deep breath and return to the more pressing existential problems posed by threats on this planet rather than off-world.
Earth safe from 'city-killer' asteroid 2024 YR4 'That's impact probability zero folks!'
The chances of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting our planet are now zero. Last week, it was the riskiest asteroid to hit our planet since records began.
Asteroid's chance of hitting Earth in 2032 not high after all
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 40 to 90 metres wide.
