Apophis, asteroid, trajectory In April 2029, an asteroid roughly the height of the Empire State Building is going to pass closer to Earth than our own communication satellites. NASA has tracked this object for over two decades, yet a critical mystery remains regarding its composition and behavior. This breakdown examines why astronomers remain focused on this specific event and what it means for our understanding of near-Earth objects. We explore the current trajectory data and the specific challenges scientists face while preparing for this close encounter. #apophis #asteroid #osirisapexmission #flyby #spacedocumentary
