Study warns Bennu asteroid could cause global "impact winter" if it hits Earth in 2182.
A new study in Science Advances models the catastrophic effects of a potential asteroid Bennu collision with Earth in 2182, a scenario with a 0.037% chance.
Bennu could trigger a global "impact winter," reducing rainfall by 15%, lowering temperatures by up to 4 degrees Celsius, and depleting the ozone layer by 32%, severely disrupting food production and ecosystems.
Despite the low probability, the research underscores the need for monitoring hazardous asteroids.
