Asteroid 2024 YR may not hit Earth in 2032, but it—and others—will keep coming back
88% Informative
Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a diameter between 40 to 90 meters and was referred to as a "city-killer" The larger asteroid, 887 Alinda , is over 4 kilometers in diameter and could cause a global extinction event.
Not since the 1970s has so much attention been paid to asteroids with a three -to- one relation to Jupiter .
Alinda was discovered in 1918 and has made several sequences of near passes at four-year intervals.
Space-based surveys like the upcoming Near-Earth Object (NEO) surveyor can be very efficient in detecting asteroids.
They do so by their heat (infrared) radiation and, being in space, can also study the daytime sky.
Among asteroids, we must pay special attention to resonant ones, such as 2024 YR4 , because eventually, they'll be back.
