ON THE WEB: ASTEROID WATCH

by Hazed

Worried that an asteroid might be heading for the Earth? Fear not, NASA is on the case. They've got a special Asteroid Watch website that explains what the dangers are, and what can be done about it. There's the top ten facts about asteroids, which includes the fact that Earth is pummeled by more than 100 tons of material every day that spewed off asteroids and comets; news about missions to asteroids and comets; and some really good pictures.

Take a look at http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/index.cfm.
