On the dead bird site #ESAOperations has good news about asteroid 99942 Apophis.

It will miss our home planet on 13 April 2029. The flyby is going to be a close shave though.

ERS-2 spotted! 📸🛰️ The ESA satellite is on a tumbling descent that will lead to its atmospheric reentry and break up this week. These images of ERS-2 were captured by @heospace for @spacegovuk using cameras on board other satellites. #ERS2reentry

Astronomers on a small slice of our planet’s surface (shown in red, here), extending from southern and eastern Africa to the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Peninsula, could actually watch it live with their telescopes ...
