New simulations reveal that there is an extremely small chance that the "city-killer" asteroid Apophis could be nudged onto a ...
Asteroid 99942 Apophis, known as the 'God of Chaos,' will make a close approach to Earth in April 2029. Although it poses no immediate threat, NASA plans to study it using the OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft.
The asteroid, named after the Egyptian god of chaos, will pass within 20,000 miles of Earth on April 13, 2029—closer than some human-made satellites.
When the 'God of chaos' asteroid Apophis makes an ultraclose flyby of Earth in 2029, our planet's gravity may trigger tremors and landslides that totally change the asteroid's surface.
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.

When the 'God of Chaos' asteroid flies by our planet in five years, Earth's gravity could cause it to experience 'asteroidquakes,' scientists predict. It will pass us by on April 13, 2029.
