Watch the moment an asteroid hit Earth 🤩 A small asteroid hit Earth and burned up in the atmosphere over the Philippines. It was discovered by astronomers only hours before it streaked across the sky in a bright fireball, but went unseen by many on the ground as the view was obscured by cloudy weather produced by Typhoon Enteng. Fortunately, there was no need for an evacuation as the asteroid was too small to do any damage on the ground. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2446397-a-small-aste

China's new mission: test how to protect Earth from asteroid impacts. The mission involves two spacecraft: one to monitor and the other to strike the asteroid. The goal is to change the asteroid's orbit by just a few centimeters to prevent future collisions. #Trending #ChinaInnovates #SpaceChina | CCTV
