Asteroid Apophis has the tiniest chance of hitting earth in 2029 – on a Friday the 13th
Astronomer Paul Wiegert had found a scenario in which Apophis could be sent careening into Earth in 2029. But we’d have to be extremely unlucky.
'God of Chaos' asteroid Apophis could still hit Earth in 2029, study hints — but we won't know for 3 more years
New simulations reveal that there is an extremely small chance that the "city-killer" asteroid Apophis could be nudged onto a collision course with Earth by another asteroid before it flies past our planet in 2029.
Asteroid Apophis Won’t Hit Earth in 2029—Unless This Freaky Scenario Plays Out
Asteroid Apophis doesn’t currently pose a threat to Earth when it passes by in a few years, but an astrophysicist has envisioned a scenario where that could change.
'God of Chaos' asteroid could be pushed into a collision course with Earth
The results of his study suggest that an object as small as 0.6 meters across could potentially nudge the asteroid onto a collision trajectory post-2029. Astonishingly, an object just 3.4 meters across could strike with enough force to set Apophis on an Earth-collision path by 2029.
Collisions could increase chance of 'God of Destruction' asteroid Apophis hitting Earth
Apophis will come close enough to Earth to be seen with the naked eye in 2029, but a chance encounter with another asteroid could steer 'God of Destruction' space rock destructively close on a future pass.
Eyes on Apophis: ISRO is tracking 'God of Destruction' asteroid with a potential 2029 Earth encounter
Apophis, a large asteroid measuring 340-450 meters, will pass within 37,000 kilometers of Earth in April 2029. Though visible to the naked eye, the chance of collision remains low.
Asteroid Apophis to hit Earth in 2029 if it collides with other space rocks? What we know
Asteroid Apophis was initially discovered in 2004 and immediately became a talking point as potentially hazardous asteroids, which have widths of 460 feet or more and come within 20 lunar distances of the Earth.
Asteroid Apophis Could Strike the Earth If It Collides With Smaller Space Rocks: Study
New research suggests that small asteroid collisions could potentially alter Apophis’s trajectory, raising concerns about future risks.
Chance Of Asteroid Apophis Hitting Earth Slightly Higher Than Thought, Why Icelanders Are Tossing Puffins Off Cliffs, And Much More This Week
In an image that’s sure to give you indigestion, a new paper has reported a world-first predation event as a Burmese python was spotted chowing down on a reticulated python. The Burmese was over 3 meters (10 feet) long with the tail-end of a reticulated in its mouth, in a rare meal that took about two hours to finish. Read the full story here
Fears city-killer ‘God of Destruction’ asteroid could hit Earth as experts warn of deadly deflection
EARTH could collide with its deadly cosmic neighbour, Apophis, an asteroid 1,100ft (335m) wide, should a rare chain event occur, according to a new study. Though it would be a one in a billion
Asteroid Apophis May Still Have a Small Chance of Hitting Earth in 2029, Study Reveals
The study hints at a slim chance that asteroid Apophis could hit Earth in 2029 due to a potential impact with another asteroid before it passes by.
