New Theories About Comets, Asteroids, And How The World Might End. Cover: Illustration by Jean-Francois Podevin. TOP OF THE WEEK: THE TRANSITION: HELP WANTED: Bill Clinton's election is unleashing a frenzy of public spirit--and naked ambition. He is being besieged by supporters eager to land government jobs. He also began to grapple with campaign promises he'd made on issues like job creation, health care and an end to the ban on gays in the military. National Affairs: Page 24. WHERE THE MILD THINGS ARE: This year's children's books convey several lessons: there's a reason little-known folk tales are little known; the only famous people who should write for children are people who got famous writing for children, and multicultural good intentions are no substitute for a good story. The Arts: Page 72. DOOMSDAY SCIENCE: HOW WILL THE WORLD END? On March 23, 1989, an asteroid a half mile across missed Earth by just 700,000 miles. No one saw it coming; if it had arrived a mere six hours later it might have wiped out civilization. Astronomers are scurrying to start a census of just what threats lurk in the solar system, and as the pace of discovery picks up, so should the pace of any earthling's heart. "Earth runs its course about the sun in a swarm of asteroids," says astronomer Donald Yeomans of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena. "Sooner or later, our planet will be struck by one of them." Society: Page 56. [FULL NEWSWEEK LISTINGS]: National Affairs. Clinton: help wanted. Crossing the gay minefield.
