This is closer than many of the satellites orbiting Earth. However, there’s been some debate among scientists regarding the chances of the asteroid actually hitting us.
Currently, Apophis’ path isn’t set to collide with Earth, but a study published last month in The Planetary Science Journal pointed out that even a tiny object could change that.
Canadian astronomer Paul Wiegert and his co-author, Benjamin Hyatt, dug into the possibility of Apophis getting knocked off its current course by colliding with something else in space.
They found that even a small object, as little as two feet in size, could alter its trajectory enough to send it crashing into Earth at some point in the future.
