A database of all known asteroids and their orbits around the sun, with graphical displays showing their paths which you can fast forward or rewind. Some are due to get pretty close, like 2004 MN4 in the year 2035. But according to this article it may change course due to an earlier close pass by the earth in 2029 and change it's orbit...into the earth. Another article on the NEO program's website states that the asteriod trajectory becomes far less predictable after the 2029 close pass which they say will pass just under the altitude of geosynchronous satellites.
