Going that near to Earth is going to alter its orbit. I hope they factored that into the equation.

It could bounce off something on the way in too. Like the moon.

Predicted to miss earth in 2029 - there is a gravitational keyhole some 600 meters wide If Apophis hits it on its approach will alter the path to hit earth on next pass in 20246

I wonder if we should mention this to the folks at NASA.
Maybe they didn’t think of that.

LOL! Do you calculate orbits for a living?

The people at NASA do. They're extraordinarily good at it. Your hopes are fulfilled before you even express them.
