99942 APOPHIS •• The Odds of the Unthinkable by Ben Cassese - 30.8.24 VIDEO: Illustration of the cases where one impulse Δv = 10−1 m s−1 from a small asteroid impact has been applied to Apophis. The nominal (unperturbed) case is highlighted by a green reticle. Cases leading to Earth impact are indicated by an orange reticle. This figure is a single frame of an animation showing the approach of the asteroid and clones to Earth. The animation is approximately 20 s long and shows the relative posit
