Sad News from NASA on Waiting for the Day with the Meteor
According to the latest research from NASA, the number of meteors that will travel close to Earth is less than predicted earlier.
Sad (!) News came from NASA for those who are waiting for the extreme cold disaster. The number of meteorites close to the predicted world was found to be much less than the result of the research done. It's a much lower meteor stink.
Alan W. Harris, the planetary scientist who conducted the field studies we talked about in Canada, realized that a repeated mistake was made when examining the data from his observations. As a result of this mistake, it seemed that the meteorite was found to be much more potentially harmful than it actually was, but in reality it was the opposite. Harris presented the results of his research last week at the 49th Annual Meeting of the American Astronomical Society for Planetary Sciences.
The method used to detect the asteroids that are far away from us in space is simply a matter of measuring the amount of sequential light from these structures. This method reveals some margin of error because even the best telescopes are able to miss the light. However, due to differences in shapes of the asteroids, they can not always reflect light in direct proportion to their dimensions.
Harris, who collaborated with Italian astronomer Germano D'Abramo last year, had observed 990 asteroids larger than 1 KM. According to the revised observations following the systematic fixes and mistakes, this number was reduced to 30-40. This is still a good news for people who have not cut their hopes of humanity, and it is still unclear to us whether humankind will end with a meteor.
