Asteroid approaching today! Terrifying 220-foot space rock rushing towards Earth | Tech News

Asteroids are ancient rubble left over from the early formation of our solar system about 4.6 billion years ago, according to NASA. They can generally be spotted within the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Now, the space agency has issued an alert against a very similar asteroid that is rushing towards the planet today, December 9.
How you could help protect Earth from a direct asteroid hit | BBC Science Focus Magazine

An asteroid that recently crashed down in Ontario highlights the importance role hobbyists can lay in tracking Earth-bound asteroids.
In the film Don't Look Up , a pair of astronomers serendipitously discover an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth. After thoroughly checking their conclusions, they pass the information on to government authorities who immediately take over and order them to remain silent.

Megatsunami swept over Mars after devastating asteroid strike | Astronomy.com
Around 3.4 billion years ago, when Mars was a warm, wet world, an asteroid several kilometers wide tore through its thin air and crashed into a shallow sea, leaving an expansive crater on the seafloor.
When NASA chose Viking 1’s landing site, they were hoping for a landscape formed by a different type of watery inundation, one with landforms sculpted by flowing water.
NASA's Next Asteroid-Hunting Telescope Will Launch Later and Cost More Than Expected
NASA's plan for an upcoming infrared asteroid-hunting telescope, called Near Earth Object (NEO) Surveyor, has officially changed.
The benefit of NEO Surveyor will be its vantage point from space, which offers scientists an increased field of view over ground-based detection. This larger window will likely help to accelerate NASA's current 30-year detection timeline to meet Congress' 2005 goal.
