Every year, 60 asteroids pass between Earth and the moon. In 2020, one came within 1,800 miles—close enough to demolish a city. NASA's response? "Don't worry, be happy." But when bullets are flying through your neighbor's window, you don't wait for yours to shatter. The threat is real. The evidence is mounting. And we're running out of time to prepare.
