About Astronomical Objects
Space around Earth is full of small and large objects – meteors, asteroids and comets – that in the worst case can hit our planet and set off catastrophes with the potential of annihilating civilization. How big is the risk? Not very big. But it’s big enough – just ask the dinosaurs. As late as in March 2009, when I was proof reading Gospel of Lucifer, two asteroids all but brushed against Earth.
