"NASA Warns: Asteroid Bennu Poses Threat of Earth Collision in 2182"

NASA scientists monitoring the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft have warned that the asteroid Bennu, which is larger than the Empire State Building and makes a close approach to Earth every six years, has a 1 in 2,700 chance of hitting Earth on September 24, 2182. The asteroid's impact would release 1,200 megatons of energy, but NASA believes it could burn up in the sun or is more likely to hit Venus.
