Each is large enough to destroy a city, triggering widespread fires and tsunamis.<BR><br \/>\nThe international researchers, led by Valerio Carruba from Brazil&#8217;s S\u00e3o Paulo State University, said in their report that 20 co-orbital asteroids of Venus are currently known.<BR><br \/>\nEven more concerning is that these asteroids don\u2019t follow perfectly stable paths. Their orbits can wobble or shift over time, and any gravitational disturbance could propel them toward Earth.<BR><br \/>\nBecause ground-based telescopes can\u2019t observe the area near the sun, the researchers say a dedicated space probe should be sent toward Venus.<BR><br \/>\nIn their report, they note that this is the only way to fully map the &#8220;still invisible&#8221; hazardous asteroids hiding in Earth\u2019s blind spot.<BR><br \/>\nIn April, scientists at NASA raised new concerns by increasing the chance of an asteroid hitting the Moon to four per cent. That warning followed a separate risk assessment showing the probability of a major asteroid impact on Earth had climbed to 3.1 per cent, the highest odds ever recorded.<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-05-29 14:03:13 Three large asteroids that could destroy entire cities on Earth are currently hiding behind Venus.
