Asteroids with ‘unstable orbits’ hide around Venus—do they threaten Earth?

TL;DR


Summary:
- Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun and can pose a threat to Earth if they come too close. Scientists closely monitor the orbits of asteroids to assess any potential risks.
- The article discusses how asteroids can sometimes get "stuck" in an orbit between Venus and Earth, which increases the chances of them eventually colliding with Earth. This is a phenomenon known as "resonance."
- Astronomers are working to better understand the orbits of these potentially dangerous asteroids in order to predict and prevent any future collisions with our planet.
