For thousands of years, humans have believed that Earth could coexist peacefully with its celestial neighbors. However, now, as human exploration of the universe deepens, this sense of security has vanished. Scientists have realized that Earth has always been part of the "cosmic shooting range," with asteroids passing by at any moment. Tiny asteroids frequently land on Earth's surface, adding nearly a thousand tons of weight to the planet daily. Human survival is constantly tested by nature—viruses, volcanoes, planets, and hidden killers in space. This book presents the real future of cosmic disasters.
