A 900 foot-wide asteroid will make the latest in a series of close approaches to the Earth tomorrow.
Scientists have ruled out any possibility of a cataclysmic collision – yet – but there remains a non-negligible chance of the asteroid Apophis smashing into Earth in 2036.
This year Apophis, named after an Egyptian mythological demon, will not get closer than around nine million miles.
Scientists will use the encounter to improve their estimate of just how dangerous the space rock really is.
Apophis is the name of an Egyptian Snake God who devours worlds… All eyes on 2036 for a very real galactic apocalypse. -Mort
