2023 International Asteroid Day
International Asteroid Day is observed annually on 30 June to mark the date of Earth’s largest asteroid impact in recorded history, the Siberia Tunguska event. It was established by the United Nations in 2016 to increase public awareness of the risk of an asteroid impact and to inform the public about crisis communication actions to be taken at the global level in the event of a credible NEO threat.
To further explore the related research on the 2023 International Asteroid Day, we have gathered open access academic articles on the topic of asteroids. We hope to share the up-to-date scientific knowledge in the field of asteroids with the world on this special day.
