NASA scientists determined that Asteroid 2024 YR4 had little to no chance of hitting Earth, but the moon should watch out.
President and CEO of the Michigan Science Center Dr. Christian Greer is no stranger to asking questions about the mechanics of the world we live in. He’s a graduate of Morehouse College with a degree in Physics and a Doctorate of Education in learning technologies from Pepperdine University.
Greer wants to share his love of science with people across the board, but especially the next generation of curious thinkers.
Many of those young, curious thinkers spend a lot of time on social media and Youtube. Recently, the news of a possible asteroid impact on Earth in 2032 sent folks into a frenzy. Greer joins the show to let us know what’s up with asteroids and our solar system.
