How close will asteroid 2023DW get to Earth in 2046?
On Sunday, February 27, 2023, astronomers discovered a new asteroid that they’ve labeled 2023DW. At this moment, ESA’s Near-Earth Objects Coordination Center is listing the asteroid as having a 1-in-680 chance of striking Earth on February 14, 2046.
And, as typically happens, as further observations refine our knowledge of the asteroid’s orbit, we’ll likely learn the chance of the asteroid’s missing us in 23 years is even greater than that.
