Hey…Apop this!

I got to tell you, Asteroid Apophis is really getting laughed at by the media. There are asteroids hitting the earth every month and it gets little attention. It is not until the Russian scientists that say there is a good chance of impact in 2036 that the news spends a half day talking about it and then silence.
Asteroid Apophis could be the biggest news story since, well, ever. Just image that if it did come around in 2029 and was deemed a threat for 2036, we would only have a few short years to prepare to intercept it so it makes good sense that the Russians are trying to get a team together to actually prevent this global killer from even getting near us.
