Just so you know, there’s now an asteroid on course to potentially collide with Earth in 2068 – Happy Mag
Asteroid Apophis, named after the Egyptian god of chaos, is picking up speed with a potential collision with Earth set for 2068.
A 330-metre-wide asteroid, affectionally named Apophis, is picking up speed as it heads towards Earth with a potential impact due on April 12, 2068.
Named after the ancient Egyptian god of chaos, it’s surprising asteroid Apophis didn’t make it to Earth a little earlier for 2020, where this year’s events would be nicely complemented by a meeting with an asteroid of such destruction.
