The number of asteroids falling on Earth is increasing, but NASA recommends not to worry.

According to the results of a new study conducted by the US Space Agency, the large asteroids of 290 million years ago began to fall on the ground more than it. it was 700 million years ago, according to "Euro News".

The study showed that large asteroids fell every million years and scientists came to this conclusion after studying craters on the moon formed after shocks.

American astronauts brought stones from the buzzards of the moon to determine their age.

The researchers found that there were 29 nozzles on the moon, 290 million years old or younger, and nine other nozzles between 291 million and 650 million years ago.

The distance between the Earth and the Moon being negligible compared to the size of the universe, we can therefore assume that the number of asteroids falling on the same moon fell on Earth.

Most scientists consider dinosaurs as extinct by an asteroid falling within 65 million years, and the magnitude of the most dangerous asteroid, which will pass near the Earth after 861 years, is 1.3. km.

A 20-meter small asteroid signed on Earth in the Chelyabinsk region of Russia in 2013.

In another context, NASA scientists estimated that the Apophysic asteroid could hit the Earth in 2068, but that by 2029, it would approach the Earth 10 times more than the moon after Earth.
