Asteroid Heading Toward Earth 2024. (nasa/john hopkins apl) on sept. 1,030,000 kilometres date of closest approach:

Imagine if scientists discovered a giant asteroid with a 72% chance of hitting the earth in about 14 years — a space rock so big that it could not only take out a city but devastate a whole.
