On Friday, April 13, 2029, Earth will experience a dramatic close encounter with the asteroid<\/u><\/a> 99942 Apophis. The 1,120 feet (340-meter) wide object will pass within just 19,000 miles (31,000 km) of our home planet \u2014 a distance that brings it closer than most geostationary satellites.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the tremendous size of Apophis, its close-passage will be so bright that around 2 billion people will be able to witness it with the naked eye. First becoming visible in the southern hemisphere, the asteroid \u200awill appear as a bright star streaking across the sky from east to west, initially passing over Australia, then the Indian Ocean, and eventually crossing the equator over Africa.<\/p>\n
