When an asteroid the size of Texas is headed on a collision course with Earth at 22,000 mph, NASA's executive director, Dan Truman (Billy Bob Thornton), has only one option - to send up a crew to destroy the asteroid. He enlists the help of Harry S. Stamper (Bruce Willis) -- the world's foremost deep core oil driller -- and Stamper's roughneck team to land on the asteroid, drill into its surface and drop a nuclear device into the core to disintegrate it. On this heroic journey, they face the most physically and emotionally challenging conditions ever encountered to save the world and prevent Armageddon.
