Description:

Asteroid 2024 YR4, about the size of a 15‑story building, has a small chance of hitting the Moon in 2032. If it does, it could create the largest lunar crater in 5,000 years and eject debris into space, threatening satellites in low‑Earth orbit and possibly causing a meteor shower on Earth. The debris could damage hundreds or thousands of satellites and pose serious risks to moon‑orbiting spacecraft and future lunar missions, the New York Post has reported. More observations in 2028 will help clarify the impact risk.
