NASA constantly monitors everything that moves around the Earth, and unfortunately it seems that there is a risk of impact with 200 asteroids that are part of a group that our planet passes by twice a year. Currently known as the Tauride group of shooting stars, this group of meteors is associated with comet Encke, and among the rocks there are also 2 asteroids that could hit the Earth at any moment, unfortunately.
NASA knows very well what is in the group of rocks, but researchers outside the space agency are worried because no one is making preparations for the moment when 200 asteroids will hit the Earth. At the moment, the researchers who look carefully at what NASA monitors, and that's about it, say that this would be the greatest danger of impact with an object in the universe that exists for the Earth we live on.
NASA: ALERT for an IMPACT RISK with 200 ASTEROIDS
NASA is working together with ESA on a project to protect the Earth from a possible impact with a single, or maybe even 2, asteroids, but 200 is a much too large number for there to be any chance of defense. Considering that the Earth passes by this group of rocks twice a year, the chances that any of the 2 asteroids, or maybe even all of them, will hit the Earth increase with each approach that the planet makes to that area in space.
"Asteroids are closely monitored by scientists around the world, and one researcher has revealed that experts are deeply concerned at the prospect of a collision with a group of more than 200 space rocks, which he has called the biggest collision hazard for humanity."
NASA he discovered that that group which has a width of 30 million kilometers is composed of two parts, and at a given moment, not very far away, there may be risks that an impact with the Earth may exist. If more large asteroids from that group were headed for Earth, we would have no way to defend ourselves, and the damage could be huge, but NASA is not preparing, at least as far as is publicly known, for that .
NASA he said that only somewhere in the second part of this decade there are chances that an asteroid will hit the Earth, but the preparations that are being made now to divert its path should protect us, theoretically.
