Apophis 2029: The Asteroid Passing Closer Than the Moon | Relaxing Space Science

Описание: Apophis asteroid 2029 flyby will pass closer than satellites on Friday April 13. Learn about the God of Chaos asteroid threat, NASA planetary defense, and what really happened when scientists discovered this near-Earth object in 2004.

On April 13, 2029, asteroid Apophis will make the closest flyby of a large asteroid ever witnessed in recorded history. Two billion people will be able to see it with the naked eye as it passes just 32,000 km from Earth—closer than many satellites.

In this deep dive, discover:
How Apophis reached the highest threat level ever recorded (Level 4 Torino Scale)
The precovery image that eliminated the 2029 impact scenario
Why this Friday the 13th encounter will transform planetary defense
NASA's OSIRIS-APEX and ESA's Ramses missions to study the asteroid
What Earth's gravity will do to Apophis as it passes
How the DART mission proved we can deflect dangerous asteroids

This is the story of how humanity transformed an asteroid threat into the scientific opportunity of a lifetime.
