Scientists have been watching a huge asteroid named BENNU for awhile now as the good news is that they say this asteroid is still unlikely to hit earth..the bad news is that there is now a slightly GREATER chance of it clobbering earth than previously thought!!.. Scientists say not to be alarmed from that cause the odds are still quite low than Bennu will hit earth in the next CENTURY David Farnocchia said "We shouldn't be worried too much" who is a scientists with NASA's Centre for Near Earth Object Studies The odds have risen from 1 in 2700 to 1 in 1750 over the next century or two They are collecting samples with a spacecraft heading back to earth on a long, roundabout loop from the large, spinning rubbile pile of asteroid considered one of the 2 most hazardous known asteroids in the solar system and is de back in 2023 It will show over the 2 and a half years how scientists can determine whether its orbital path well hit earth in the future The year 2300 is when everyone alive today will be dead but for the future generation may have some panic.. In the meantime, Bennu will have a close encounter with Earth in 2135 IF Bennu does hit earth, it wouldn't wipe out dinosaur style populations but rather create a crater roughly 10-20 times on earth's surface Do you think an asteroid will hit earth in YOUR lifetime? https://i.imgur.com/Ysav2Y2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/TA9yQjU.png --- The Users have Spoken.
