Asteroid Apophis "ESA" Astronomers Say Could Be Just a Handful of Kilometers From Earth
Asteroid Apophis will make an extremely close approach of Earth on Friday, 13 April 2029. At ten times closer than the Moon, Apophis will be closer than satellites orbiting in the Geostationary ring.
At this distance, Earth’s gravity will have a notable impact on the passing space rock, altering its path and amplifying the uncertainty in its orbit and in possible future impacts.
What was not known previously is whether the 2029 flyby would alter Apophis’ orbit in just the ‘right’ way that it would collide with Earth in a future orbit around the Sun. To do this, Apophis would pass through what’s called a ‘gravitational keyhole’, leading to a potential (but still very unlikely) impact in 2068.
