Groundbreaking Findings: New Analysis Unveils True Nature of Ancient Asteroid
By Osaka University December 13, 2022 The new information from the Ryugu samples might contribute to the redefinition of the standard elemental compositions of solid materials in the solar system.
Since as far back as Ancient Greece, humans have been fascinated by the solar system.
Asteroid Impact Simulator Shows Our Chances of Surviving Devastating Impact
An asteroid simulator shows the devastation that would be inflicted on your area if a giant space rock crashed into it, providing some insights into whether you would survive.
Created by web game developer Neal Agarwal, the Asteroid Launcher site allows users to simulate an impact on a given location anywhere on Earth.
Wild Research Project Reveals How Future Cities on Asteroids Could Work
By University of Rochester December 13, 2022 In what they deem a "wildly theoretical" paper, University of Rochester researchers imagine covering an asteroid in a flexible, mesh bag made of ultralight and high-strength carbon nanofibers as the key to creating human cities in space.
During this past year, Jeff Bezos launched himself into space, while Elon Musk funded a space flight for a non-astronaut crew. Space collaborations between government and private entities, including Musk's SpaceX and Bezos's Blue Origin , are becoming more common.
Landmark Study: Dinosaurs Were in Their Prime When Asteroid Hit Earth
By University of Edinburgh December 12, 2022 A new study provides the strongest evidence yet that the dinosaurs were struck down in their prime and were not in decline, at the time the asteroid hit.
First author, Jorge García-Girón, Geography Research Unit, University of Oulu, Finland and Department of Biodiversity and Environmental Management, University of León, Spain, said: "Our study provides a compelling picture of the ecological structure, food webs, and niches of the last ...
ESA - ESA asteroid toolkit: how to guide
With the new near-Earth object (NEO) Toolkit you can visualise any asteroid's orbit, including those making a close approach of Earth; get impressive illustrations of different groups and families of asteroids as well as plan upcoming observations and chart asteroids paths across the sky from ...

The Geminids, known for bright, intensely colored meteors, have been streaking across the night sky since late November, and the shower will peak the night of December 13 through December 14, according to the American Meteor Society.
What if an asteroid hit Park Hill flats? | Now Then Sheffield
I know this thanks to Neal Agarwal, the creative coder behind a data visualisation tool called Asteroid Launcher . Pick the place the asteroid will land, its size, speed and the angle of the impact, and it will give you the apocalyptic results.
Thankfully NASA doesn't anticipate a significant asteroid strike for over 100 years – though there's nothing quite like visualising a potential horror story to turn it into something to fear. Just ask any Sheffielder who watched Threads growing up.
