Late in 2024, astronomers spotted a new near-Earth asteroid named 2024 YR4. By mid-2025, its improved orbit tracking raised an unusual possibility: the space rock could hit the Moon on Dec.

Lonar Lake, the 50,000-year-old meteorite-impact crater in Buldhana district, has long drawn scientists and tourists for its rare ecology, high salini.

A small asteroid could strike the Moon in 2032, sparking moonquakes, glowing craters and meteor showers, while scientists debate whether to stop it or watch a rare cosmic experiment unfold.

Asteroid 2024 YR4, once a potential threat to Earth, could hit the Moon in 2032, creating a 1 km crater, a bright flash visible from Earth, and a possible meteor shower, scientists say.

A nearly 60 meter Apollo-class near-Earth asteroid, 2024 YR4 was spotted in 2024 whose path crosses both Earth’s and the Moon ...

A stronomers are getting prepared for the chance to see "the most energetic lunar impact event ever recorded in human history", which will take place in 2032, with a little luck.

Abstract: Extracting rampart crater ejecta blankets is crucial for understanding impact crater formation and material transport processes, offering key insights into the distribution of subsurface ...

WETUMPKA, Ala. (WSFA) - The city of Wetumpka is getting a financial boost to support the development of the Wetumpka impact Crater, one of the state’s most significant geological and tourism assets.

Because of Earth’s weathering climate and shifting tectonics, impact craters regularly disappear from the Earth’s geologic record. Scientists in China found an impact crater that formed during the ...
