Exactly 20 years from today, an asteroid about the size of a 25-story building will come closer to Earth than the networks of communications satellites orbiting the planet.
The chance of an impact are extremely remote — only about 1 in 45,000 — but the asteroid, named Apophis , will be back. Analysis of the asteroid's orbit show it will return to Earth seven years later.
Astronomers don't yet know if Apophis' second visit will be a rendezvous or a collision , as its orbit will be bent by Earth's gravity during the 2029 flyby.

The recent crumbling blast that tore apart the bridge in Minneapolis was predicted in the past. The last earthquake that brutalized Indonesia was also predicted long ago. And the next great catastrophe we experience will also come from predictions written more than two thousand years ago. But how could scholars two thousand years ago, determine the future of today? Perhaps the gift of divine far sight was used in these predictions? Maybe, it was coincidental and none of these destructive events had anything in common. Or, each separate event was merely provoked by a cosmic imbalance forced into action, by our infinite galaxy. Personally, I believe these things are signs of something greater than human existence. I believe these horrible incidents are being ordained and orchestrated by the Creator of all mankind.
