Armageddon is an adventure spanning the universe, from a South China Sea oil-rig to the depths of an asteroid.

It should be remembered that, despite the fast action sequences and the cogent topic, a Hollywood film is not made for scientific accuracy. In particular, most of the science details in the film are wrong. So the film should not be taken as a real description of how to deal with an incoming asteroid, but only as good entertainment value.
