International Asteroid Day

International Asteroid Day is a global commemorative day established by a resolution of the United Nations General Assembly in 2016, designated for June 30th each year. This day aims to raise public awareness of the risks associated with asteroid impacts on Earth and to promote global cooperation in addressing this potential threat. Its background stems from the asteroid impact event that occurred in the Tunguska region of Russia on June 30, 1908, which is one of the most destructive extraterrestrial impact events in modern history. The significance of International Asteroid Day lies in popularizing astronomical knowledge, emphasizing the importance of scientific monitoring and planetary defense, and commemorating historical impact events. Common celebratory activities include global educational lectures, astronomical observation events, documentary screenings, social media topic discussions, and public science outreach activities organized by scientists and institutions. For businesses, meaningful public relations communication activities can be carried out around this event, for example: 1. Initiating or sponsoring related science education projects or youth astronomy competitions to demonstrate corporate social responsibility; 2. Utilizing social media platforms to publish science content, or collaborating with astronomical institutions and science bloggers for live-streamed interactions to enhance the brand's image in the fields of technology and education; 3. Organizing employee participation in online/offline astronomical observations or lectures as part of corporate culture building; 4. Releasing product or technology content related to space exploration and technological innovation, linking the brand with cutting-edge science and future human issues.
