Astronomers determine Asteroid Apophis will hit the Earth

We just need Bruce Willis and his deep core drilling team.

Sheesh - what a bullcrap.

Article says "within 18000 miles" - that's roughly 29000 kilometres. earth radius is about 6450 km (including atmosphere). Divide the area of a circle with radius 29000 km by the "to hit" area: pi*R² / (pi*r²) and you get a rough chance for a hit of 1 in 20. While that is enough to be worried about, it is hardly a "will hit".
