An asteroid the size of the Empire State Building, a celestial body called Bennu, is likely to find our Earth fuller than previously thought – Found NASA astronauts this week. about this aa It was reported on Ladbible.
According to research, the distance between the two objects in the year 2135 will be within 125 thousand miles. (This is about half the distance between the Moon and the Earth.) The probability of collision was 1: 1750, previously this number was still 1 of 2700. According to the closest current calculation, September 24, 2182 may be the day Bennu, which has a diameter of 500 meters, collides with Earth.
New: Researchers use data from # Osirisrix The mission gained further insight into the path of asteroid Bennu during the year 2300. The results could help us improve the orbits of other asteroids, and reduce uncertainties: https://t.co/Rkhk2YxjN9 pic.twitter.com/6j38j4ru7I

The article also gave a slight assurance that the impact would not “only” wipe out entire wildlife in an area a hundred times the size of the asteroid itself, destroying nature and everything that was in a circle before it.
