Okay, first off there have beem many thing astronomers say thats not true. In 1998 they said in 2010 there would a asteroid hitting Earth but now they said its not true. So you should stop worrying about it.
Hope this helps you.

It'll miss Earth by about 2 Earth sizes. Still the closest asteroid in a thousand years though.
If you're in Europe, Asia or Africa at the time then you can see it with the naked eye. But most people won't - 2029 light pollution will be horrendous!

i believe that this asteroid may well hit earth and should this be the case then we will indefinitely be living/dying in a type of nuclear winter ash will block out the sun unless of course the atmosphere is ignited by the impact at which point the world will with out a doubt end. should that not be the case then we shall there for plummet into a new ice age at which point the human race will begin all over again and the atmosphere will eventually even it self out with nature and in theory start a fresh clean world for the new race to live in.

nicely, you will wish only pray for human beings in ny. in the adventure that your in Mass, what would you be petrified of? the way I heard it became into the Charles Bolden, a primary Engineer at NASA became into asked by ability of a Journalist what we could continually do if a popular asteroid have been headed in direction of ny. He informed the Journalist that we could continually pray. For the checklist, (and that i'd think of the present impact in Russia would have made this glaring) an asteroid impact does no longer immediately advise an apocalypse.

Actually, I heard it just misses but sucks off our atmosphere. What worries me is in the 90's, most telescopes in the world were closed to all but a few researchers and openings to connected, electrified underground tunnels and such all over the world were sealed by crews that were not local.

Well, scientist have come up with many ways to move astroids just out of earth's path. There are huge teams of scientists who work on issues just like that. So, hopefully by then those plans will be fully developed. Besides, I wouldn't really worry about it. It is something you or I can't really control.

2036, not 2029. The odds are small. But if we have the sense to devleop the space technology needed, we can nudge it aside easily enough. If people don't have the sense to do that, we desrve to get clobbered.

Dont they say a near miss is a couple of million miles so I think the probability is stupidly low but I dont know. The closer it gets the better they can predict it and hopefully do something about it!!
I aint getting worried yet!!

Doesnt matter what we think. Theres nothing we can do.
Its bye bye for all of us if it does. Or the vast majority. But never mind we will rise again, and the survivors will form little alliances, start fighting for supremacy, reinvent nuclear war etc etc
