Threatens Earth asteroid 400 meters in 2032 (Photo)

The world as we know it could come to an end in 2032 . Ukrainian Astronomers have discovered a giant asteroid could hit the earth with the power of nuclear bombs 2500 .
Astrophysical Observatory revealed last weekend that an asteroid with a diameter of 400 meters to 2013 TV135 called by name . This asteroid is considered the second most dangerous for life on Earth .
Scientists have always considered that the chances of hitting the Earth are small . Chance to hit Earth in 2032 is 1 to 63 thousand and this means that there is still a 99.99 % chance that life on Earth continue normally .
But if it happens , the damage will be too great . 100 thousand square miles would be destroyed and climate change for years and years to come.
But if not , the asteroid will pass close to Earth's orbit , suggests the Russian news agency , RIA Novosti .
While NASA has described as a potentially dangerous object .

Ukrainian scientists spotted the object after last weekend , astronomers at observatories in Spain , Italy , and Russia 's Siberia confirmed the existence of TV135 2013 .


The place where the asteroid hit


Asteoridi for the first time is approaching Earth in 2024, while the chance of hitting may be the year 2032.

But a few days ago, NASA scientists have discovered another asteroid predict will hit Earth, this time on March 16, 2880. The asteroid is a large rock that currently travels 15 kilometers per second towards the Earth.

Collision with Earth would be equal to the power of 44 800 megatons of TNT. The risk that this asteroid hit Earth is a probability of 50% reliable than other asteroids that are heavenly space.


In the history of Earth asteroids have different planet has always threatened, but according to scientists, such has been named one of the K / T that ended the era of the dinosaurs, 65 million years ago.
