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.
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
'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.
'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.
Could ‘God of Chaos’ asteroid hit Earth in 2029?
( NewsNation) — Scientists say an asteroid known as the “God of Chaos” has a slightly increased chance of impacting the Earth in 2029, but only if a very unlikely series of events plays out.
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.
Collisions could increase chance of 'God of Destruction' asteroid Apophis hitting Earth
A chance encounter with another asteroid could steer Apophis destructively close to Earth during a future passage.
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 to enter Earth's orbit temporarily: What to know about 'mini-moon'
Asteroid will come close enough to Earth to temporarily enter its orbit at the end of the month, a phenomenon dubbed as "mini-moon," according to astronomers.
Meet Earth's New Mini-Moon Before It Vanishes
The hunk of rock, dubbed 2024 PT5 will fly into Earth's orbit, get caught there from Sept. 29 to Nov. 25 and then go on its merry way out into the solar system. Scientists call such phenomena mini-moons.
Why Earth will temporarily have a mini-moon for two months
A rare mini-moon, a small asteroid temporarily captured by Earth's gravity, will briefly orbit the planet for two months. This 33-foot-long object, while billions of years old, was only recently discovered.
