Though a possible collision between Earth and a giant asteroid on Friday the 13th sounds like a Hollywood blockbuster starring Bruce Willis...it is not.
On April 13, 2029, Asteroid 99972, aka Apophis (the 'Egyptian God of Chaos'), an asteroid that "appeared" to be on a collision course with Earth's orbital path (but now isn't) will come uncomfortably close to our planet. (Close, but no cigar, according to NASA).
Discovered in 2004, the initial calculations of this "Near Earth Object" (NEO) were that there was a small but very real possibility that it would strike Earth some where in the Atlantic Ocean with the explosive force of 880 million tons of TNT and be 65,000 times more destructive than Hiroshima or any tsnami ever recorded.
Since then, the expected trajectory has been recalculated, refigured, and retracted.
NASA now says it will fly harmlessly by.
Others say, "Not so fast NASA." Impact cannot be completly ruled out given:
- How extremely close to the earth this asteroid comes, and
- there are several years worth of unknown gravitational effects that could change its trajectory.
"And there shall be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring, men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken" (LUKE 21:25-27).
