This film takes up this highly topical story of how Britain and the USA are now developing the technology to protect the world from an asteroid impact.
Governments around the world now admit that it is not a matter of if, but when, an asteroid will hit the earth. We already know that one is speeding towards us with a 1 in 300 chance of hitting the earth. And, there are bound to be others. The only question is: what can we actually do to stop them? |
