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 cosmic disasters.
