Deep Impact
Disaster movie. A fourteen-year-old amateur astronomer discovers an unknown object among the stars. It is in fact the first sign that a comet is heading towards earth. A year later astronaut Spurgeon Tanner is sent up in spaceship the Messiah to land on the comet and attempt to shatter it with nuclear bombs. Tanner's attempt goes horribly wrong when he succeeds only in splitting the comet in two.
