Hidden Danger: 20 Asteroids Orbiting Venus Pose Threat to Earth
Scientists have discovered a cluster of at least 20 asteroids orbiting Venus, hidden from Earth-based telescopes by the sun's glare. This discovery, highlighted in a recent Ripost TikTok video, raises concerns about the potential for devastating asteroid impacts on Earth. 'Even a small asteroid could unleash hundreds of megatons of energy upon impact,' explains Dr. [Insert Expert Name Here], a planetary scientist. The difficulty in tracking these asteroids due to their proximity to the sun makes predicting their trajectories challenging. The Ripost video suggests that a space probe sent to Venus is the best solution for monitoring these potentially catastrophic threats. This underscores the need for continued investment in planetary defense systems and further research to mitigate the risks posed by near-Earth objects.
