The Raging Planet – Fireballs From Space

Part of the Discovery Channel natural history documentary series. This volume looks at the hundreds of tons of space debris that falls to earth every day, mostly in the form of microscopic particles, but also in the form of larger comets and meteorites. Even worse, it is more than possible that a meteor as large as the one thought to have wiped out the dinosaurs could land on earth again, and the documentary follows NASA scientists as they develop a mission to land on an asteroid.
