IF WE’RE ALL STILL HERE by 2036, this could be of importance to us!! According to Russian reports, the Apophis Asteroid (which has been in the news before) will collide with the Earth in 2036. Russian scientists have even predicted an exact date!! To find out when that dooms day is and to hear an explanation about the asteroid, hit the jump!!
(HP)–
“It’s likely collision with Earth may occur on April 13, 2036,” Professor Leonid Sokolov of St. Petersburg State University concluded.
The Apophis Asteroid made headlines in 2009 when scientists predicted a greater than 2 percent chance of impact.
NASA scientists are cautious about the prospect.
“Technically, they’re correct, there is a chance in 2036 [that Apophis will hit Earth],” said Donald Yeomans, head of NASA’s Near-Earth Object Program Office. But that chance is just 1-in-250,000, Yeomans added.
