Researchers are unlocking secrets of our solar system by analyzing asteroid Bennu samples, some of the most pristine ever ...

successfully demonstrated the ability to alter an asteroid’s trajectory in 2022 by crashing a spacecraft into Dimorphos, a small moon orbiting the asteroid Didymos. If Bennu were ever confirmed ...

One of them, Bennu, has a 1-in-2,700 chance of colliding with Earth in September 2182, the researchers note. If that happens, the researchers suggest, major long-term changes would occur on Earth ...

Firefly Aerospace's moon-bound spacecraft has provided the closest thing to a reflecting pool in space, showing Earth as an imposing monument, stacked on top of another Earth. The illusion is a ...

Earth could face catastrophic consequences if hit by an asteroid similar to Bennu, according to new computer simulations. Scientists have determined that such an impact would dramatically alter our ...

Scientists recently completed computer simulations of what would happen to Earth if it were impacted by an asteroid with a diameter the size of the 500-meter-wide Bennu. It’s not good. Why Bennu? Well ...

Using the same billion-dollar instrument suite designed for its original asteroid, the spacecraft will be able to closely study the surface, shape and gravity of Apophis. It’s a fantastic deal ...

Multinational Research Project Shows How Life on Earth Can Be Measured from Space Feb. 6, 2025 — Measurements and data collected from space can be used to better understand life on Earth.

It is being monitored by NASA and the European Space Agency, which are both tracking ... There’s one called Bennu that is much bigger than 2024 YR4. There is a chance Bennu could strike in ...
