Asteroid hits Earth in 2036?

NEW YORK - According to Russian scientists, the asteroid Apophis weighs about 270 million tons could collide with Earth 2036th year and so create chaos across the globe and the deaths of millions of its inhabitants, according to U.S. media.

The U.S. space agency (NASA), however, disagrees with this outlook, and argues that the likelihood of Apophis hitting Earth 1 in 250,000.

They also estimate that I will attack, if it comes to him with such force will be like a nuclear explosion of 510 megatons, and point out that this asteroid could not "Armageddon", but that could cause a terrible tsunami and the death of several million people.

Russian and U.S. scientists are now left in the next 25 years, follow the path of Apophis, and that if they determine that the attack is inevitable to find solutions to its trajectory changed or mitigate the consequences of stroke. Scientists argue that a solution could be to use nuclear weapons to break Apophis into smaller pieces.
