Asteroid

NASA's highly anticipated mission Lucy is scheduled to launch today at 0934 GMT (15:04 IST). The spacecraft leaving for Jupiter's Trojan asteroids will be on a 12-year journey to understand planetary origins.

NASA launched a spacecraft called Lucy on a 12-year mission to explore Jupiter's Trojan asteroids for the first time on Saturday, gathering new insights into the solar system's formation.

NASA's upcoming mission to explore asteroids in order to learn about the earliest era of our solar system is ready to launch. The spacecraft named Lucy is expected to take off this week on a mission that is estimated to take 12 years.

NASA will launch a mission this November to strike an asteroid that may pose a threat to Earth. NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will be launched in order to prevent a hazardous asteroid from striking Earth.

The United Arab Emirates will launch a spacecraft to explore a major asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, officials said Tuesday, after a UAE probe reached the red planet early this year.

NASA is poised to send its first spacecraft to study Jupiter's Trojan asteroids to glean new insights into the solar system's formation 4.5 billion years ago, the space agency said Tuesday.

An asteroid named 2021 NY1 could come close to hitting the Earth this month. The asteroid has been classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). It has also been classified as a near-Earth object owing to its predicted close pass by our planet.

The researchers also say that the processes that deliver large asteroids to Earth from that region occur at least 10 times more frequently than previously thought

The space agency has classified the orbit of the asteroid under the category of most dangerous asteroids

No matter what situation you present the good folks of the Internet with, they will find a meme to match it. And the International Asteroid Day 2021 is no different.

Asteroid Day 2021: June 30 is observed as the International Asteroid Day. On this day 113 years ago, the largest asteroid impact took place near the Tunguska River in remote Siberia. Know all about asteroids and the Near-Earth Objects.

Google honoured Italian astrophysicist Margherita Hack with a doodle on her 99th birth anniversary on Saturday. She had discovered the asteroid 8558 Hack, which was named in her honour.

China on Friday successfully sent four satellites into planned orbits that will be used for ecological environment monitoring, asteroid resource exploration, disaster prevention and mitigation among others.

A “potentially hazardous” asteroid is set to fly past the Earth on Tuesday (June 1), NASA has warned. The asteroid will be passing near our planet at a distance of around 4.5 million miles.

NASA and its peers around the world conducted a “table-top” exercise last month to determine the time scientists will take to understand and find ways to prevent a catastrophic collision of an incoming asteroid into the Earth.
