Asteroid YR4-11 Ways the World Could End

0 - Default Title
Description
December 2032. The asteroid 2024 YR4, roughly fifty meters across, could strike Earth. The odds are low-3% as of now. But if it hit Paris or New York, either city would be annihilated, releasing hundreds of times the energy of Hiroshima.Earth has already faced five mass extinctions. Colossal volcanic eruptions and giant asteroid impacts wiped out up to 90% of species. These cataclysms are not myths-they are etched in our planet's rocks and fossils.In this eye-opening book, the author explores eleven scientifically plausible, if unlikely, ways the world could end: asteroid impact, supervolcano eruption, wandering planet, solar storm, nearby supernova, shift of Earth's orbit, rotation halt, Sun's extinction, a passing neutron star, or a rogue black hole.A gripping and thought-provoking examination of our planet's fragility in the face of cosmic threats.
