Asteroid May Hit Moon in 2032, Posing Satellite Risk | JQJO

Asteroid 2024 YR4, initially posing a minor threat to Earth, now has a 4.3% chance of impacting the moon in 2032. The impact, while unlikely to pose a direct threat to Earth, could endanger satellites and astronauts due to ejected lunar debris. The collision, potentially visible from Earth with binoculars or small telescopes, would create a massive crater and a spectacular meteor shower. NASA plans further observations in 2028.
