While fixing a satellite in orbit, the space shuttle atlantis is destroyed by a meteor shower,killing the entire crew.Meteorites then bombard New York City and several other parts of the world,and NASA discovers that an asteroid the size of Texas will collide with Earth in 18 days,effectively destroy the planet.NASA and other space agency plan to detonate a nuclear bomb at precise point under the asteroid's surface which will split it in two.The mission is not revealed to the publict,fearing panic.
NASA locates Harry Stamper(Bruce Willis), because he could help them drill a hole on the asteroid.Harry bring his daughter Grace(Liv Tyler)to keep her away from A.J.(Ben Affleck). A young member of his crew who he has just discover sleeping with her daughter.He is very disappointed about it.Head of NASA Dan Truman informs Harry about the situation so Harry Decide to bring with him his crew and demands 12-day training.
After a meteorite strikes Shanghai,China,Destroying the City and causing Tsunami,the incoming asteroid and pending mission are reveled to the world.Two military shuttles, Freedom and Independence were sent to the outer space.As they enter the asteroids wake,the Independence struck by debris and crashlands on the asteroid, killing most of its crew and lost its communication to the earth,the mission is put on hold,as the bombs timer activated by orders from U.S. President to ensure mission succeed.They encounter many difficulties along the way.When they reach the asteroid they encounter the decision of staying in the asteroid to detonate the bomb.A.J. was choosen after the drawing straw,but Harry disables A.J.'s air supply and takes his place.As the shuttle departed, Harry send a message for his daughter giving his full support for her to marry A.J..Exactly when the deadline come Harry detonate the bomb causing the asteroid to split in two and miss the earth,at the cost of his own life.The remaining crew of freedom and independence return to earth as heroes.Grace and A.J. soon get married while other lost crew member are memorialized.
