Yes, the Odds of an Asteroid Striking Earth Have Doubled. No, You Don't Need to Worry (www.universetoday.com)

We recently reported that asteroid 2024 YR4 has a 1% chance of striking Earth in 2032. Now astronomers have revised their estimate to 2.3% for a direct strike on Earth. This might sound a little scary, but don't worry, this is normal when there are initial asteroid discoveries and the orbital uncertainty is still wide. Over time, better measurements will be taken, and the chances of a dangerous impact will almost certainly go down.
