Asteroid "2024 YR4," discovered in December 2024, has a 4.3% chance of hitting the Moon in 2032. It is currently too distant for further tracking until 2028.
NASA continues weekly discoveries using infrared tech, while ESA uses the Flyeye telescope. The DART and Hera missions aim to improve asteroid deflection strategies.
