Experts on the ground will be waiting for an asteroid sample which will be collected by Nasas space rock probe OSIRIS-Rex and sent back to Earth for a comprehensive analysis on Sunday.The space...

NASA scientists have predicted there is a chance that a massive asteroid they have been tracking could smash into earth in the year 2082, potentially devastating an area the size of Texas.

NASA(NEW YORK) -- An asteroid NASAs been tracking for nearly 25 years could impact Earth in the future, a new report reveals. First discovered in 1999, Bennu, the near-Earth asteroid, could possibly drift into the planets orbit and could hit the planet by September 2182, according to the OSIRIS-REx science team. Bennu passes near Earth every six years and has had three close encounters with Earth in 1999, 2005, and 2011, experts said in the ScienceDirect study. There is a 1 in 2,700, or 0.037% c...
