The Architecture of Falsehood: Threatening Planetary Stability

A new study by Mark Boslough at the University of New Mexico shows how fake news and bad science reporting hurt our ability to protect Earth from space rocks.

A new study warns that the spread of false information is making it harder to defend Earth from dangerous space rocks. This is a big problem for planetary defense.

#asteroid #2026JN4 is apparently not being added to the official list of pre-impact detections because there were not enough observations to nail down an estimated impact point and there were no reports to confirm air or ground impact.

At approximately 2026-May-15 13:44 UTC, #asteroid #2026JN4 impacted Earth's atmosphere shortly after discovery. The 1m-wide rock was not a threat. Most that size are simply not discovered before becoming a common fireball meteor. The previous impactor discovered before impact was in December 2024. https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/tools/sbdb_lookup.html#/?sstr=2026%20JN4&view=OPC #astronomy #PlanetaryDefense #PlanetaryDefence #LowFlyingRocks

"Phew! NASA Rules Out Asteroid Smashup on the Moon in 2032" by @universetoday / @alanboyle - Astronomical observations of #asteroid #2024YR4, including from #NASA #WebbSpaceTelescope🔭 #JWST, refined its orbit estimate to rule out impact with the #Moon on its Dec 22, 2032 flyby. Possibility of Earth impact on that pass was already ruled out in April 2025.
