Study Simulates Global Impact of Potential Asteroid Bennu Collision in 2182

  • A new climate modeling study simulates the impact of a potential asteroid collision in 2182, published by researchers from the IBS Center for Climate Physics at Pusan National University in South Korea.
  • The study predicts that an asteroid strike could inject 100–400 million tons of dust, disrupting climate and photosynthesis for 3–4 years.
  • Researchers warn that even a medium-sized asteroid like Bennu could drastically reduce global food production and lead to climate change lasting over four years.
  • The study indicates that solar dimming from dust would create an 'Impact Winter' with reduced sunlight, cold temperatures, and decreased precipitation at the surface.
