Asteroid Apophis – Asteroid Clashes with Earth: Scientists Scare with New Space Threat

The asteroid Apophis could be encountered with the Earth in 2068.

According to the TASS report, according to scientists,

According to researchers, the approach of the asteroid on the Earth in 2068 could turn into a catastrophe if Apophis will follow a trajectory involving the passage of the celestial body: in 2044 to 44 million kilometers from Earth, in 2051 – 0.76 million kilometers, in 2060 – 5 million kilometers [19659003] Russian researchers say that the rapprochement of Apophis with the Earth can also occur in 2051, 2058, 2079 and 2086 – at a distance of only 1 to 10 million miles

It is worth noting that atastrofa can happen before – in 2060 year. However, to do this, the object must follow a trajectory with a minimum geocentric distance to the Earth in 2068 to 0.1 million miles: "The trajectory leading to a collision in 2069 is close to the trajectory of the collision in 2068 , the minimum geocentric distance in 2051 the year – 0.76 million kilometers in 2068 – 0.1 million kilometers ".

Recall that on the eve of her arrival at NASA as head of scientific communications, Michelle Thaler commented on the lethal collision between the Earth and an asteroid, or even a planet. Recall that conspiracies around the world more often claim that the death of a "blue planet" will result in Nibiru. The next "end of the world" is scheduled for December 21, 2019. According to Thaler, NASA is not the only agency studying what is happening in space, if the Earth is actually threatening something, the authorities and the media have known for a long time.

NASA recently released photos of the 2003 asteroid SD220, which swept the Earth on December 22. . This asteroid has the shape of a hippopotamus bathing in the river.

In early 2019, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft visited one of the most distant objects of the solar system, the Ultima Thule asteroids, in the Kuiper Belt. The object lies about 6.6 billion kilometers from the Earth.

New Horizons has provided the Earth with unique images of the ultimate Thule asteroid. The US Aerospace Administration specialists have created a unique animation from the photo.
