J002E3 is an object in space which is thought to be the S-IVB third stage of the Apollo 12 Saturn V rocket. It was discovered on September 3, 2002, by amateur astronomer Bill Yeung . Initially thought to be an asteroid , it has since been tentatively identified as the third stage of Apollo 12 Saturn V based on spectrographic evidence consistent ...
"An asteroid this size impacts Earth on average every few thousand years and could cause severe damage to a local region," the European Space Agency said. An asteroid could hit Earth in 2032, NASA ...

having their governments support the ASE's and B612's efforts to identify "city-killer" NEOs capable of impacting Earth, estimated at a million, [14] by deploying a space-based asteroid telescope, and; committing member states to launch an international test deflection mission within 10 years. The first meetings of IAWN and SMPAG were held in ...

The new shorter-range Model S and Model X start at $79,880 and $89,880, respectively.
[56] [57] The study of impact craters indicates that impact frequency has been more or less steady for the past 3.5 billion years, which requires a steady replenishment of the NEO population from the asteroid main belt. [27] One impact model based on widely accepted NEO population models estimates the average time between the impact of two ...
