An asteroid is hurtling toward Earth, and it appears that it will destroy a decent portion of life on Earth. 17-year-old genius Russian physicists, Yuri, comes to America to work with NASA to divert the asteroid and save the planet. Yuri knows how to stop the asteroid; his work on antimatter will not only save the world, but also win him a Nobel prize. But it's not that simple. His NASA colleagues don't trust him, he's seen something he shouldn't have, and he's been completely distracted by beautiful, wild Dovie (a regular teenager). Yuri might be a genius, but he's not quite sure how he's going to save the world, win the girl, and get back to Russia.
