They don't think so, but it will be very close in 2029. There is more concern about the next time it comes by, but that's really not that far off, it will be in 2036.
_____________________________________________
When Apophis comes close to Earth (and it will be VERY close on an astronomical scale - below the altitude of geosynchronous satellites!) on Friday, April 13, 2029, it WILL MISS. However, we cannot accurately predict PRECISELY how close it will come, and how the orbit of Apophis will be altered by the Earth's gravity.
And when Apophis returns to near-Earth space, on Friday, April 13, 3036, there is a very small chance that it will strike the Earth. However, during the close pass in 2029, we will plant telemetry sensors and radar reflectors which will enable us to track it with perfect accuracy. And if we're smart - and nobody ever accused NASA of being smart! - we will also plant two very large nuclear weapons on Apophis.
Then, several months later, when we've had time to calculate its orbit to see exactly where it will be in 2036, we can determine whether one or both of the weapons should be detonated to nudge Apophis into a safer orbit. And if it turns out that Apophis is not going to hit the Earth in 2036, then we can ignore them and watch the pretty asteroid scoot by. And in 2050 or so, we ought to be able to capture the asteroid and move it into a parking orbit, perhaps in the L4 or L5 points on the Moon's orbit.
Just think; if this all works out, your grandchildren may live in the Apophis Station!
there is 1 in 45,000 chance that in 2029-2036 the apophis will strike and if it does in will hit of the coast of California and there will be huge tsunamis
99942 Apophis is an asteroid where initial observations indicated a small probability (up to 2.7%) that it would strike the Earth in 2029.Later observations concluded that the asteroid would miss the Earth.The chances are now set at a one in 3 million that it will hit Earth.
No. There is no comet or asteroid or meteor going to hit the Earth. Most of it is superstition.
Asteroid Apophis is a Near-Earth Asteroid that will pass close to Earth in 2029 and again in 2036. However, current calculations show that there is no risk of it impacting Earth during these encounters.
The asteroid Apophis is not expected to hit Earth. Current predictions show that it will come close to Earth in 2029 and 2036, but the chances of impact are very low. NASA and other space agencies continue to monitor its trajectory to ensure there is no threat of impact.
Apophis is an asteroid that might come close to Earth in 2068, but destroying it is not currently a feasible or safe option. The best approach is to track its trajectory closely and, if necessary, use deflection techniques to alter its path away from Earth.
about 60 or 70% of life species plus humans will died out when if the asteroid apophis when if hit the earth that asteroid is size of manhattan same size which killed off the dinosaurs
Yes, Apophis is real, but it is not a physical entity. Apophis is a near-Earth asteroid that gained attention due to its close approach to Earth in 2029 and 2036. Scientists are monitoring its trajectory to assess any potential impact risks.

The answer to this can be found in the links I will place below.

Apophis the Red Meteor was named by American scientists in 1992 after the ancient Egyptian god of chaos and destruction known as Apophis. The name was chosen to reflect the potential danger posed by the asteroid's close approach to Earth.
No. Apophis is an asteroid about the size of a skyscraper.
NO! It is always further away from the Sun than Neptune which is 30 further from the Sun than Earth and minor planet Apophis. Apophis will come very close to Earth, but it is just 270 m in diameter... If it impacts Earth it causes just a tsunami if it hits the sea.
The impact of asteroid Apophis, which is about 340 meters in diameter, would create a crater up to 5-6 kilometers in diameter if it were to hit Earth. The exact size would depend on various factors such as the asteroid's density, speed, and angle of impact.
