A powerful telescope has discovered a giant object speeding through our solar system. Is it an asteroid? Will its orbit bring it close to Earth? Is there a chance it could one day collide with our planet? It's time for a team of asteroid hunters to go into action and track the object as it hurtles through space! In this title, readers will meet the scientists who use high-powered telescopes and super computers to watch for dangers from space. There is also a fun Q&A to help readers decide if becoming an astronomer or space scientist could be the career for them!
