Shoemaker-Levy 9 is a comet that was split apart in 21 peices by Jupiter on a pass by, then in 1994 all 21 peices crashed into Jupiter. The bruises left by Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter's gas surface were as big as the Earth.

 

That is why I named my Xweetok Shoemaker_Levy_9.

Ok then let's get back on subject...

 

After checking research tables at Nasa.gov I see that Apophis has a 1 in 45,000 chance of impacting Earth on April 13 2036.

I read that in a magazine! It was said to be horrible but a feast for the eyes of astronomers!

 

And guys, stop being so down about an asteroid that may not even hit us!
