4. In 1801, while making a star map, Giuseppe Piazzi accidentally discovered a small object 1000 kilometers (600 miles) in diameter between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Piazzi named the object Ceres. It was the first asteroid to be discovered.

5. If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically.

6. Morrison (1994, P. 71) explains that extinction level impacts visit the earth about once every 100 million years. If humankind fails to intervene, an asteroid will surely destroy us all eventually, given enough time, unless something else destroys us first, instead.
