What is Asteroid Day?

Asteroid Day, also known as International Asteroid Day, is an annual global event which is held on the anniversary of the Tunguska event in 1908, when an asteroid leveled about 2,150 square kilometres (830 sq mi) forest in Siberia.

The United Nations has proclaimed it be observed globally on June 30 every year in its resolution.  Asteroid Day aims to raise awareness about asteroids and what can be done to protect the Earth, its families, communities, and future generations from a catastrophic event
