Encased within the orbit of Earth and Venus, a new class of planet-killer asteroids have been discovered recently. They highlight a great danger for the Earth in the coming days. Recently, scientists made a discovery that can have terrifying consequences for us. A group of researchers found three new asteroids, one of them labeled ‘potentially hazardous', orbiting in the space between Earth and Venus. While NASA has been tracking more than 20,000 near-Earth objects (NEOs), it was not known that asteroids existed in…
