At a third of a kilometer across, Apophis would hit with a TNT equivalent of about a gigaton. That’s around 20 times bigger than the Czar bomb, the biggest nuke ever detonated. It could even trigger a nuclear winter effect.
To: Red Badger
The media is telling me that the chance of this thing hitting us is the same as Trump winning in 2016. It’s just not happening.

The good news is that scientists are assuring us that there is zero chance that this enormous space rock will hit us. Part of me believes this to be a lie and that Apophis is the reason for everything we're seeing, a runup to police states everywhere while populations are distracted from all the deficit spending with manufactured crisis after crisis.

But also spread the destruction to more locations, increasing the odds of hitting a city. Hard to say what would be best.

>> If our top experts are this confident, why are some people out there still concerned about Apophis?
Well I don’t know squat about asteroids... but since the Kung Flu pandemic I have learned a thing or two about the credibility of “our top experts”!

Is a single 1000 mega ton bomb worse than 100 10 megaton bombs? Or 1000 1 megatons?
To: Red Badger
Sigh. If it’s not one thing, it’s another...

Other factors...
Some scientists have commented that as it tumbles and passes the sun, different sides are heated and cooled, which can vary the trajectory.
Wiki states that if the current projected trajectory holds, the pass will be within the current orbital paths of geostationary satellites. That’s rather close!
No fear.
God’s in control.
