Armageddon Movie
A gigantic asteroid is on a direct collision course with Earth. There is little time left before the fatal crash. Only a miracle can save life on Earth. In order to make a miracle, NASA Administrator Dan Truman (Billy Bob Thornton) sends the world's foremost deep core driller, Harry S. Stamper (Bruce Willis), and his courageous crew to land on the asteroid, drill into its center and drop a nuclear explosive device. The detonation of the bomb will crack the asteroid into two halves which will pass Earth on both sides. The drilling team must complete their highly important mission before the deadline; otherwise the halves will not fly by but slam into the planet.
