California-based Galactic Resource Utilization Space (GRU) is taking $1 million deposits to reserve stays in a planned Moon hotel that GRU says could begin construction in 2029 and open by 2032, targeting ultra-wealthy travelers and couples seeking an off-Earth honeymoon; the company plans to use proprietary habitation modules and lunar-soil structures, pending regulatory approval, to accelerate a lunar economy and broader space presence.
Oregon and Oregon State will continue their football rivalry through at least 2032 under a new multi-year agreement starting in 2027, despite the first missed meeting in over 80 years next season, with the series set to include six games and alternating home games at Autzen Stadium and Oregon State's stadium.
A study suggests that if a large asteroid hits the Moon in 2032, debris could threaten Earth's satellites and cause a spectacular meteor shower, although the likelihood of a direct Moon impact is currently low. The impact could release energy comparable to a nuclear explosion, potentially damaging satellites and lighting up the night sky with meteors. Scientists are monitoring the asteroid, which has a small chance of hitting the Moon, and consider it a potential target for planetary defense testing.
A study estimates a 4.3% chance that a 2024 YR4 asteroid could collide with the Moon in 2032, potentially causing debris that threatens Earth's satellites and creates a spectacular meteor shower, though the risk of hitting Earth directly is very low.
A potential impact of asteroid 2024 YR4 on the moon in 2032 could eject lunar debris towards Earth, creating a spectacular meteor shower and posing risks to satellites, although the asteroid's chance of hitting Earth remains very low. The impact could be comparable to a large nuclear explosion, and the event highlights the need to consider planetary defense beyond just Earth.
Asteroid 2024 YR4, about 53-67 meters in size, has a 4% chance to impact the moon in 2032, potentially creating debris that could threaten satellites and cause a spectacular meteor shower, with significant short-term risks to space assets near Earth.
