It's only a city-killer, but last I saw there were a few cities in the estimated impact area. Fortunately we'll get a better idea of whether it's going to hit in 2028. Plenty of time to launch a redirection mission or evacuate the danger zone.
Not 2028, but 2032. It is guaranteed to miss in 2028, but could potentially impact us in 2032
Yeah, but it comes close enough in 2028 to get a good fix on its trajectory and to launch a mission to it.
I see what you're saying now, sorry. Yeah as it passes by we should be able to say with certainty when it actually will hit whether that is 2032 or 2432
