Astronomers can predict the future path of an asteroid by calculating its current position and velocity, then using physics equations to simulate how it will be influenced by gravitational forces from planets and other objects in the solar system. This simulation allows them to forecast the asteroid's trajectory and determine if it poses a potential threat to Earth.

Maya astronomers were able to predict eclipses of the moon?

Yes, Maya astronomers were able to predict eclipses of the moon because they closely observed and recorded the patterns of the moon's movement over time. By studying these patterns, they developed a sophisticated understanding of celestial events and were able to predict lunar eclipses with a high degree of accuracy.
