It's called Apophis. It's 390m wide. And it could hit Earth in 31 years time. blink.gif

Scientists call for plans to change asteroid's path Developing technology could take decades.

In Egyptian myth, Apophis was the ancient spirit of evil and destruction, a demon that was determined to plunge the world into eternal darkness.
A fitting name, astronomers reasoned, for a menace now hurtling towards Earth from outerspace. Scientists are monitoring the progress of a 390-metre wide asteroid discovered last year that is potentially on a collision course with the planet, and are imploring governments to decide on a strategy for dealing with it.

For all we know the comets and asteroids that'll destory this planet don't even exist yet. God might just create them and send them our way as to surprise and catch us off guard.

Thank you, this is the same one that is "lovingly" termed Wormwood by many scientists. Can't find the site now, but that is what they were calling it in England and here.

I really don't see the humor.

In Revelations, there are several comets mentioned. A first actually hits. To the second it says "I shall tear it inot peices" and rock rain upon thee earth. Of course secientists will have hurled a rocket and will think they did it.... And then the last that can not be deterred or it would have been.

I do believe this is the one. It times out very well in codes to 2034 and the fact that "This generation shall not pass" before the final day.

I had a dream a while ago about a comet coming towards earth, being hit back (perhaps by a rocket) and then breaking into a rain of rock and hitting the earth. It's gonna happen.

hmm if the legend and prophesy would be true i say that the comet would be destroyed in about 3 seconds if the defier of all things would be true and and on life's side i say i would be destroyed

Matthew 24
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

Jesus said that no one will know the day or the hour. He never said someone would not know the times.

Matthew 24
29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
32 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors!


Jesus gave us the signs of the times.
