Asteroid might kill us in 2036

I was just watching ABC news internet tv and saw an interesting piece called "Last Days on Earth", talking about how the destruction of life on Earth might come about. They said that in 2004, NASA discovered an asteroid on a near collision course with the Earth. They called the asteroid Apothesis or Apotheosis, not sure exactly which spelling is correct (probably Apotheosis based on its definition).
They said that NASA calculated that on April 13th, 2029 (a Friday, don't you love the irony?) this asteroid will come close enough to the Earth to dip below our communication satellites. They said it should not impact the Earth in 2029. However, 7 years later, 2036, again on April 13th, the asteroid will swing back, much closer this time, and could very possibly hit the Earth destroying most of the life on Earth. Anything that would survive the initial impact would most likely die due to the debris from the asteroid blocking out the sun and polluting the atmosphere.
