+# Homework #4
+
+20 points
+
+**DUE: Thursday, Feb 27 by 5:30pm**
+
+This assignment is intended to provide more practice at JavaScript (ES6)
+programming.  Some research might be required.
+
+Did you know that NASA keeps an eye on asteroids hurtling their way toward our planet?
+
+Some of them are tiny, but some of them are huge!
+
+Some of them will miss the Earth by a wide margin, but some get very close!
+
+**Requirements**
+
+Build a website that provides information on the asteroids coming in the next 7 days.
+In other words, your site should retrieve 7 days' worth of data from NASA every time the page is
+refreshed.
+
+The design of this website is completely up to you, but the more useful and
+creative it is, the more points you can achieve.
+
+You should:
+
+* Use the included `index.html` file for your website.
+* You can add as many other JS and CSS files as you like.
+* Get your own API key. It can take a few days for NASA to respond to your request,
+so you can use my key in the meantime: `ThEWyjBBPDnDKV2CVSqO4gRU3qjBlpkMJo06rwo8`.
+However, you must have your own API key by the time you turn in this assignment.
+* Use the "Asteroids - NeoWs" API to retrieve the most current data.
+* Use the "APOD (Astronomy Picture of the Day)" to help make for a more interesting design.
+* Some asteroids are potentially more likely to end the world than others.  You will
+need to study the data in order to decide how to design a page that higlights the most
+important data.
+* If you're not sure where to start, try using the "potentially hazardous",
+"maximum estimated diameter", and "miss distance" fields to help sort the data.
+
+**Grading Rubric**
+
+* 5 points for using your own API key
+* 5 points for succesfully using the "Asteroids - NeoWs" API to retrieve data
+* 5 points for displaying the data in a way that emphasizes the most important information (the
+    most dangerous asteroids)
+* 2 points for succesfully using the "APOD" API to aid your design
+* 3 points for overall design and creativity
