“Dark” warning from NASA about devastating asteroids approaching Earth

issued Agency NASA A grim warning that asteroids The destroyer can come close to the earth without being fully detected.

And scientists funded by an agency discovered NASA that the way you spin the earth Orbiting around the sun means that objects heading toward us at night can slip through a network of computerized telescopes.

An asteroid 100 meters long was located near the earth Just 43,000 miles away is enough to shake the astronomical community in 2019.

The US Congress commissioned an agency NASA Select 90% of asteroids which are over 140 meters in size and which can destroy a large city if they fall.

As part of the instructions NASA to combat threats asteroids. A heavy spacecraft was launched last year to smash a comet’s moon off course, the Telegraph reported.

Professor Richard Winscott, who led the research team at the University of Hawaii, said people “should not lose sleep” because of the risks.

He added, “If we find something, it will collide withthe earth We’d like to do something about it.”

However, when you rush asteroids Toward the earth From an area in the eastern sky at about two in the morning. The way the planet rotates and its orbits makes the flying objects appear stationary.

The study, published in the journal Icarus, reports that 50% of collisions near the earth From the east you will usually undergo periods of slow motion. making it difficult to detect.

The team wrote: “Surveys should take extra care when scanning the sky in this direction. and vigorously pursue new, slow-moving objects.”

Professor Winscott said it should be possible to update the algorithms to solve a problem asteroids that looks the same.
