Building tools and technologies to navigate our solar system and protect our planet from asteroid impacts.
关于我们
B612 and the Asteroid Institute bring together scientists, researchers, and engineers to develop tools and technologies to understand, map, and navigate our solar system, and protect our planet from asteroid impacts. A program of B612 Foundation, the Asteroid Institute leverages advances in computer science, instrumentation, and astronomy to find and track asteroids. Since 2002, the Foundation has supported research and technologies to enable the economic development of space and enhance our understanding of the evolution of our solar system in addition to supporting educational programs, including Asteroid Day. Founding Circle and Asteroid Circle members, and individual donors from 46 countries provide financial support for the work.

Update – Asteroid 2024 YR4 is no longer a risk to Earth: The odds of #asteroid 2024 YR4 impacting Earth in 2032 have dramatically dropped from 1-in-32 (3.1%) to 1-in-20,000 (0.005%). With this, YR4 has been downgraded to Level 0 (No Hazard) on the Torino Scale. Our #asteroidinstitute helped provide more observations of YR4 by using our Precovery tool! https://lnkd.in/ghdrhRpn

12 years ago, the #Chelyabinsk meteor reminded us why asteroid tracking matters. Now, #Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a 2.1% chance of impact in 2032. What do we know so far? And how is #AsteroidInstitute helping? Read our latest blog to learn more. https://lnkd.in/gEs8i2Xp #PlanetaryDefense #Asteroids

Our #AsteroidInstitute team is currently running our own simulations to better understand the trajectory of #asteroid 2024 YR4. While ESA and NASA continue their monitoring, additional observations will help refine the impact probability. We hope to share our findings in the coming days.
