NASA's Don YeomansWe’ve all seen the movies or read the books where the killer asteroid slams into earth and destroys life as we know it. But could that really happen? And just what is an asteroid anyway? Or how about a comet? And what about Apophis, the asteroid scheduled to come very close to early on Friday, April 13th, 2029?Join WFPL’s Robin Fisher as she talks with Don Yeomans, Manager for NASA's Near Earth Objects program about asteroids, comets and why we should care about such strange things.This American LifeIra Glass has taken one of the most popular shows on public radio to television.
