The Helium Bomb
When an asteroid nearly 600 times greater mass than the one that killed the great dinosaurs and all surface life is about to smash into the Earth, it will bring global devastation. All life will end right down to the smallest single-celled creatures in the depths of the oceans, leaving the Earth a lifeless hulk. How can an asteroid fifty miles across be diverted from its deadly course?
There is no way to evacuate over six billion people to another planet in time or to feed and clothe them if there were. As Professor Grymm says, "Even magic has limits."
The largest thermonuclear bomb available would not be powerful enough to knock a fifty mile diameter hunk of space rock into a safe orbit. However, back on Abras a rumor is heard that a certain scientist has designed a super bomb that could possibly solve Earth's problem. Regrettably, that scientist along with the bomb plans have disappeared without a trace.
To further confound things, when the main characters fly to the asteroid to look around, things get a bit crazy as they discover things are not exactly as they appear.

[ There is no blatant sex or adult language, but a few innuendos make me recommend it for more mature readers.]

About the Author

Daniel D. Mickle has written technical articles in the sciences plus science fiction stories for over half a century, beginning in high school with his school paper, where he wrote stories for the enjoyment of the other students. His varied interests range from quantum physics, communica-tions, electronics design, computers, chemistry, and the internet to building robots, riding motor cycles, martial arts, marksmanship, writing, photography, and oil painting (to mention a few) give him a perspective on life which may be seen in the varied aspects of his stories. A stickler for detail, he makes certain the science involved in his fiction is either already the latest views in the scientific community or are his own interpretations and projections of logical science discoveries coming in the future.
