Yes, it's an asteroid called 99942 Apophis (had to look that one up, in fact...it's the 1st google result) and it will pass earth in 2029. Some doomsday people are worried that it's going to hit us..are you one of them perhaps? If so please have a read on wikipedia

edit: I apologise, I read this again and now I see I completely misread your question. I'll be quiet now
