An unwanted guest coming from the sky has put the earth to rest. Actually, we are talking about meteorite i.e. asteroid, which is rapidly moving towards the earth. An asteroid named 'God of Chaos' will fly very close to the Earth. Its distance will be quite short. This will affect both the Earth and that asteroid. This is the same Apophis asteroid, about which ISRO Chief Dr. S. Somnath had warned that this was dangerous.
A new study regarding the asteroid shows that it is moving towards colliding with the Earth, which has increased the concern of scientists. This asteroid, known as the God of Destruction, is expected to come close to the Earth in 2029. In the year 2029, this asteroid will not hit the Earth but will pass nearby. In fact, due to Earth's gravity, Apophis' face will be disintegrated and he will be badly hurt. Earthquake tremors will be felt. There will be landslides on its surface.
What is Apophis?
Apophis is named after the Egyptian god Apep. This deity is considered the lord of chaos there. Asteroid Apophis is 1230 feet wide. Its collision with Earth may occur in the year 2068. But before that it will pass near the Earth twice. One on 13th April 2029. Then it will emerge from a distance of only 32 thousand km from the Earth and its second journey will take place in the year 2036.
ISRO estimates that if a 1230 feet big asteroid hits the Earth, it can destroy the entire Asia. There will be mass destruction in an area of about 20 km around the asteroid impact site. No population of any kind of animal will survive.
Will there be a collision with Earth or not?
Asteroids are capable of causing destruction
Let us tell you that the shape of such asteroids is very dangerous. If asteroids like Apophis collide with the Earth, they are capable of causing fire, tsunami, explosion and many other types of destruction.

A huge 560 feet asteroid is moving fast towards the Earth, isn't something amazing going to happen?
