Eminent leaders like Stephen Hawking, Lord Martin Rees, Rakesh Sharma, and many more from various backgrounds have joined this global awareness campaign, and more than 22,000 people from various parts of the world are associated with the campaign. 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. Every year on 30th June, Asteroid day is celebrated around the globe to promote awareness about asteroids. The reason why should we keep a track of asteroids, is what potential they possess, how can asteroids be hazardous or how can they be resourceful.
