10. Asteroid: 1950 DA Year: 2880 Proximity to Earth (number of times Earth/Moon distance): 1-in-300 chance of direct hit In a nutshell: This 1.4 km-wide object has a 50% greater chance of hitting Earth than all the other known "Moon-grazers" combined. In Just over 800 years, there's a 0.3% chance this object will strike Earth directly, creating species-ending, worldwide destruction.
