@hells-caretaker saidThe capital A refers to the video game Asteroids, presumably. It involved multiple, multiple near misses, the same sweaty palms as I got from doing smack, and many the unsavoury utterance in Anglo Saxon.

@fmf saidNo honest. A 1,000-foot[edit] Diameter asteroid missed Earth by a mere 400,000 miles.

@hells-caretaker saidBottom line: Asteroid Apophis will sweep past Earth on March 5-6, 2021, its closest pass before it buzzes by in 2029. The large asteroid is noteworthy for its extremely close approaches to Earth in 2029, 2036 and 2068. Observations show any impact this century is unlikely.Mar. 4, 2021
@lemondrop
When? I need to update my charts.

@hells-caretaker saidYou have to admit that if you were out by that much on your way to the pub you'd be disappointed though.

@hells-caretaker saidThe moon is only 238,000 miles away.

@suzianne saidTrue more or less,
The moon is only 238,000 miles away.
It's driven by the effect of the Moon's gravity on the rotating Earth. Tides raised in the oceans cause drag and thus slow the Earth's spin-rate. The resulting loss of angular momentum is compensated for by the Moon speeding up, and thus moving further away.
