Asteroid Apophis is often described as dangerous.

But here’s the real reason it gets attention:
it will pass closer to Earth than some of our geosynchronous satellites.

There is no impact expected.
Instead, this flyby gives scientists a rare chance to study and track
a large near-Earth asteroid with incredible precision.

Sometimes space isn’t about disaster,
it’s about understanding how close is still safe.
