‘Halloween fireballs’ and their threat to 2032 and 2036: Could the taurid swarm endanger Earth

Unusually bright “Halloween fireballs” are linked to the Taurid Resonant Swarm, a debris cluster potentially containing large objects. Studies warn this swarm could intersect Earth in 2032 and 2036, increasing the risk of regional destruction from airbursts or impacts. Researchers are preparing for these encounters, questioning if the swarm is an underestimated natural hazard.
