NASA has used advanced imaging techniques to peer inside samples of asteroid Bennu, discovering extensive networks of cracks running throughout the rock particles.

NASA has confirmed a fireball meteor exploded over Ohio on March 17, with meteorites possibly hitting Medina County. Check out the videos.

A 7-ton meteor caused a loud boom and bright flash over Northeast Ohio on Tuesday morning. Residents reported feeling vibrations and hearing a sound that shook their homes. Experts say the meteor was too small to be detected before it entered Earth's atmosphere,

Northeast Ohio is still buzzing after a 6-foot, 17,000-pound meteor soared across the sky on Tuesday morning before breaking apart in a "boom" heard across the area.

NASA has confirmed the loud, booming sound heard near Cleveland on Tuesday morning was caused by an asteroid — which was approximately six feet in diameter and weighed roughly seven tons. According to the National Weather Service,

A man found what appears to be a meteorite from that seven-ton asteroid that zoomed across Northeast Ohio at 40-thousand miles-per-hour Tuesday morning, says NASA, before fragmenting over Medina County.

In one of the biggest surprises of NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission, its target asteroid, Bennu, turned out to be a jagged, rugged world covered in large boulders, with few of the smooth patches of sandy or pebbly material scientists had expected based on observations with Earth-based instruments.

NASA says the asteroid, which was approximately 7 tons, unleashed an energy of 250 tons of TNT when it 'fragmented' in Medina County.

According to the National Weather Service, the loud sonic boom was caused by the meteor. A NASA spokesperson spoke with reporter Clay LePard, confirming the meteor was spotted near Medina. "I woke up this morning, and the sky fell, so I feel like Chicken Little right now," Bill Cooke, NASA's lead for the Meteoroid Environment Office, said.

TransAstra has developed a plan to bag an asteroid and move it to a stable near-Earth orbit for processing. Reading time 2 minutes There are roughly 250 small, near-Earth asteroids teeming with precious resources that are ripe for extraction.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — If meteorites from Tuesday morning’s fireball reached the ground, scientists say they’re most likely to be found in a narrow band across mostly Medina County. A new analysis from NASA’s Astromaterials Research and Exploration Science office maps out that potential “strewn field” — the area where fragments from the exploding space rock were expected to land — stretching

NASA said earlier this month that an asteroid that at one point had a 4% chance of hitting the moon will miss the lunar object in 2032.
