New Delhi . The Moon has increased the risk of collision of giant asteroid. The US space agency NASA has issued alert for this. This Esteroid 2024 YR 4 was discovered by James Web Telescope in December 2024 as Vishal.

Let us tell you that the possibility of colliding with Earth in 2032 was initially 3.1 percent, but now scientists say that the possibility of colliding with the moon has increased by 3.8 percent. However, there is still 96.2 percent likely that the collision will miss the estoroid.

The new data from the web telescope has shown that the size of the asteroid is so large that if it collides with the moon, it can create a big crater. The size of Esteroids is about 53 and 67 meters. Its size is so much that if it hit the earth, it could have caused a big loss. This is the reason that scientists had become cautious about this and it is constantly being monitored.

Scientists, who monitor Esteroids, are planning to have a next observation of Esteroids in May 2025 to get more accurate information about its class and potential impact.

The occurrence of the Esteroid collision with the moon is rare and it will be an important opportunity for scientists to study. This study can provide important information about the development of solar system and the characteristics of asteroids. Experts say that if it collides with the moon, a pit of about 500 to 700 meters diameter can be formed on the surface there.
