This is the asteroid that could wipe out life on the planet in April 2029 if it’s course just slightly shifts.
This will be the closest approach by something this large currently known. (In 2029) Apophis will be visible to the unaided eye for several hours, and Earth tides will probably change its spin state.
Moon is 380k km away. This asteroid will be under 30k away.

So close you could nearly double on the thing as it passes
I just seen something blaze across the sky there about half 5,it went from west to east.Was it this asteroid? It was unreal tbf I thought it was a plane breaking up for a minute
No shortage of grit there.
You should see what NASA will quote you to transport a ton back.

Can we not smash the shit out of it?
We need attach a mass driver to it and give it a bit of small nudge

This is the last pass before it smashes into Earth in 2029
