The odds are low and an asteroid this size wouldn’t cause a global catastrophe in any case, but the risk hasn’t quite gone away after repeated monitoring. The small asteroid 2023 DW could ruin Valentine’s day for a portion of North America in 23 years’ time. The chance of a collision is less than 1 percent, but despite ongoing observations have failed to drop to zero. If 2023 DW does hit, the impact would be more like an atomic bomb going off, without the radiation, than a dinosaur-killing event – but maybe space agencies will get to perform an asteroid deflection for real. With more telescopes…
