Asteroid Day 2023

Look to the skies because today is International Asteroid Day. Officially recognized by the UN to bring awareness to Asteroids.

In movies and media (and history) asteroids are often depicted as apocalyptic. While the plausible threat may be overstated, a true asteroid impact could wreak havoc. It’s important we study and monitor these minor planets. On the far less bleak side, Asteroids are a fascinating feature of our solar system.

“Asteroid Day brings the global space community together, to educate and learn about space, the history of our solar system, the future of space exploration, and planetary defense,” Markus Payer, Chair of the Asteroid Foundation said. “We want to attract the public and young people to this sector which plays an increasingly important role in the development of our economy and society. We thank our sponsors and partners and look forward to making Asteroid Day 2023 another success.”
