Armageddon

An asteroid the size of the state of Texas is headed straight for Earth. NASA has only one possible solution: send a team of astronauts into space to destroy the meteor before it collides with our planet. To do so, they turn to Harry S. Stamper, the world's greatest expert in oil drilling, and his highly skilled team of drillers. They must land on the asteroid's surface, drill into it, and plant a nuclear device that, when detonated, will alter its course and save the planet from Armageddon.
