Explore the cosmic dance of asteroid Bennu as it prepares for a close encounter with Earth on September 25, 2135! 🚀✨ During this celestial rendezvous, Bennu's trajectory may be influenced by Earth's gravity, posing a challenge for predicting its future path. Scientists are particularly concerned about the possibility of Bennu passing through a "gravitational keyhole," setting the stage for a potential impact on Earth in the late 22nd century. 🌍💥 Although the likelihood of this scenario remains uncertain, NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft has provided crucial data, enabling scientists to refine their models of Bennu's orbit and calculate the probability of an impact more accurately. Join us on this cosmic journey to unravel the mysteries of asteroid Bennu! 🛰️🔭 #BennuFlyby #OSIRISRExDiscovery #AsteroidImpactRisk
