The probability of it impacting either is very low
Forward-looking: The asteroid that has 1-in-43 odds of hitting Earth in 2032 has an even smaller chance of colliding with something else instead: our moon. The object, around half the size of a football field, would cause an explosion on the lunar surface 343 times more powerful than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, and could be visible from our planet.
