okay

it was the moon

outside I'll take four other times

Oh

can you walk

we need to find out they're not gonna

find us here

high-tech crap

we're leaving I thought they were

picking this up well something must have

happened your father wants you there

with him in Washington it seems like he

wants you there pretty badly but grandpa

I thought you never leave you don't mean

yeah get your bags we're taking the boat

nearly 20% of the countries in total

blackout power phone cellular backup

generators are the only power they have

Europe is much worse Germany's back

online

we're still getting quite a lot of

residual interferences here our systems

reading another influx of

electromagnetic what we're seeing in now

we're just not getting any levels how

many towers has to make any accurate

measurements but it seems that the

surges are getting strong it's rolling

into North America

only 20 miles of freeway

enforcing hospitals and other emergency

is it over this round

anything Natalia's doc the ER you knows

the situation and the sending people to

the area she would have still been in

that train yeah I've got to know where

that train is we're still operating on

one landline we can't get through to

anybody I'm going myself

Rowland this just came in they want you

in Washington

they've sent a hardened military

transport on washing they're sending a

conference everybody it has been a curse

but the Chancellor that you attend

Latinas tell their friends I I gotta

know that she's out there hey I will

make sure

and that the president doesn't want to

speak prematurely Antilles had a chance

to speak to emergency officials now

we're just now getting the first

unedited footage the first images coming

back from the hardest hit areas okay we

are just outside Minnesota Serge here

was quite strong myself and my crew were

secured to the ground but it was still

incredibly frightening I just need to

jump to pan over here you can see people

here with broken bones as you can see

behind me that emergency crews and the

National Guard from outlying areas are

trying to help this is just this time we

cannot be certain when or if another

event will occur therefore I am invoking

presidential emergency powers air and

train travel will remain suspended

curfews will be in effect emergency

services will continue to function as

best they can

homeland security will coordinate with

local agencies to ensure that food water

clothing and necessary goods remain

available looters hoarding and price

gouging will be dealt with swiftly and

harshly

where's grandpa

crap oh crap are you okay

and you wonder why I don't drive after

the near miss of xl1 asteroid in 1994

engineers were commissioned to develop a

way to deflect any future near-earth

objects one idea was to detonate nuclear

weapons in the path of an incoming

asteroid if the explosion nudged the

asteroid even a fraction it's altered

trajectory would multiply over distance

sending it safely past earth that was

considering millions of miles of this

now wouldn't take much of a nudge even

from this distance if we use the brown

dwarf to our advantage with the right

calculations and the right distance from

earth the brown dwarf becomes our ally

we give the moon enough of a nudge in

the right direction and its new greater

mass will be drawn towards the Sun

instead of us the Sun's gravity will

then put it into a new safe orbit okay

even if this theory works I thought it

was not possible to get conventional

nuclear weapons into space ct6 they can

OCT 6 it's a converted Atlas 5 rocket

designed to deliver payload of nukes

into space and it exists now the best of

our knowledge it does yeah well I don't

have parameters which would have to be

worked out but hello 30 odd days and

Counting

maybe down by the Riverwalk it's about

four blocks from

David thanks for coming I don't have

much time I guess that goes for everyone

you get your information wrong

no why here to make sure you don't print

the wrong story they were married for 10

years Maddy I know you're lying

honey cuz I never knew when you were I'm

not lying now I got it off the record

from a White House staff member I just

can't believe this kind of information

is being withheld from the public so I

need you face-to-face you tell me I got

it wrong

amazing even if the world were coming to

an end all you're concerned about is

your story I care about the truth it's

not just the story

I need to know if I have a month to live

I need to know that we can't print a

story like this David try and imagine

the consequence that's exactly what I'm

trying not to imagine

you got it wrong we thought we were in

trouble but the moon has reenable orbit

you no good at it

you can't lie you never could

don't do it David for once in your life

try and show a little decency

all of guys Jake check yourself on again

not a car in sight come on let's keep

walking we'll be all right

any word no they have anywhere sales

yeah it's amazing you know we have such

incredible technology my ten-year-old

can beam this to me from across the

country and still nothing we can come up

with will even all the candle to mother

nature still drink coffee

oh yeah yes why not

it's funny I remember when I was a kid

went away to camp for a month

God a month seemed like an eternity back

then you know Matty if it is over we

should be with our families it's not

over Alex this could work

you sure yeah grab a cup thank you

so what close and so if your president

has an open mind

yeah that's hope or about Martina she's

strong

I can feel it in my gut

as you say that she's safe

otherwise I wouldn't be here

Cheers

where were you headed anyway to see my

mother

we're headed in the opposite direction

out I know but leagues focus this way

closer we can get some help there

he proposed changed in the acceleration

and vector of the brown dwarf mass

trapped in the moon would in theory kick

the moon out in Earth's l4 l5 points

where the Sun's gravity would stabilize

it far enough from Earth to prevent any

further electromagnetic surges how many

nuclear warheads are we talking about

pastor Blankenship is our expert on this

type of weapons technology 1100 warheads

20 megatons each detonated in two-minute

intervals from a post orbital distance

of 100 kilometers the near simultaneous

explosions will create a continuous

exponential outward force that will

accelerate the moon's velocity away from

the earth without fragmenting the target

allowing the Sun's gravity to literally

grab hold of it now it is critical that

this be done while the moon is still

moving away you plan to get that mini

missiles to launch concurrently by using

Atlas 5's and converted Russian and

perhaps Chinese Rockets for Russia and

China don't have that technology then

we'll need to share it it's the only way

we can achieve this in the specified

timetable I don't know about anybody

else but I am not particularly

comfortable with offering the Russians

and the Chinese technologies it will

give them the ability to rain nuclear

missiles down on us from space the moon

is not a collision course with the earth

mr. secretary what the hell is the

difference look this is gonna take a

coordinated effort the likes of which we

have never achieved dr. Kittner

our advisory team mr. president has come

up with another option sorry I thought

we were the advisory team did you think

you were the only one giving advice to

the president all right hang on let's

keep on track here yes general thank you

sir

precision nuclear strikes into the newly

exposed area of the moon 87 warheads

will penetrate the already weakened

fault lines the moon will break apart

releasing it from Earth's gravity and

the burn hole twice as heavy as the

earth will slam down in our backyard by

our calculations the brown dwarf will be

disintegrated most of the debris will be

caught by the Sun's gravity no the risk

is too high

if stray debris that debris alone could

easily destroy the planet is this

correct

there is a risk but we have run this

through every simulation possible this

is our best option Your Honor I know the

US military likes throwing things up but

this will not work the heat blasts from

the original impact has fused the

compounds there is we have taken that

into consideration

dr. Emerson we have weapons that will

penetrate far enough beneath the surface

before detonating bunker busters will

only penetrate 30 metres general the

ones you know about why not just a bunch

of trigger-happy Cowboys we have

families too all right doctor what are

the realistic chances of your plan

working and as my mother used to say

leave the frosting in the fridge I can't

give you percentages mr. president but I

can assure you we have considered other

options including one very similar to

the generals there's just so much that

we don't know and too damn much you've

gotten wrong already this is new science

general don't get this one wrong

yourself sir our window of opportunity

is short

these Atlas 5 rocket have a limited

range if another plan is implemented

first and it fails the moon will move

beyond those parameters what about when

the moon starts back towards us it'll be

in range again won't it when the moon

begins its orbit back to earth it will

begin an exponential increase in

velocity nothing will stop it from

hitting this planet all right

we're gonna weigh each option without

prejudice and we'll choose the plan that

has the best chance of success

politics will not play a part I can

assure you that

thank you thank you dr. Rhodes you need

to see this

how did you first come across this

information there's something about this

whole thing never felt right to me I

suspected there was more to the story so

I began to ask questions I was

introduced to a source who confirmed

that my suspicions were correct how did

you react in shock I find it quite

remarkable that this information has not

been made available to the public and

this is the source inside the White

House yes yes confirmed off the record

by a very reliable source within the

president's inner circle I was told the

moon is on a collision course with earth

and will impact in the 36 days has there

been any official comment any word from

the White House very much trying to keep

this whole thing under wraps obviously

they're scared they don't want to tell

people that life on this planet may be

extinguished because if you're concerned

about panic widespread panic what the

hell do we do now I feel we make sure

the public knows we're doing everything

we can I've been asked to give you a

message

emergency crews reached your home your

children weren't there nor your

father-in-law the house was empty

they're continuing their search

world leaders gathering now to discuss

the crisis while the world waits for a

solution anything that can stop this

apocalypse meanwhile tension and panic

has begun to rear its ugly head

they're going with general Vaughn's plan

my fellow Americans

we have all been witness to the horrific

events that have taken place over the

past several days I wish I could come to

you now and tell you that the worst is

over as has been recently reported the

moon has in fact moved into an orbit

that has put it on a collision course

with earth we have 36 days to stop it

the United States along with other

nations of the world have implemented

operations safeguard using nuclear

weapons to destroy the moon before it

reaches us engineers and scientists have

been working together from all over the

world to accomplish this enormous

undertaking the missiles will be

launched today this is not the end this

will be our finest hour

it will be remembered as the moment when

our world became one people with one

common cause we are not American

we are not Chinese or French or Russian

we are one people on a lonely planet we

will pray together we will help each

other and we will not abandon our values

our self-respect or the rule of law in

this time of anxiety

be with your loved ones and be comforted

in the knowledge that this government

and all our friends throughout the world

are doing everything with you

god bless you all

hello

with people and help we were on the

train derails okay bring the truck get

these people to the shelter thank you

anything nothing yet

and I have no idea where they could

possibly be you know or where we would

even begin to start looking they'll be

okay with their grandfather right Lloyd

is an old cuspid he would never let

anything happen to those kids kind of

feels like London I always thought I'd

move back there funny how things don't

always turn out the way he expect

careful now

Hey

those are spoken for what's wrong with

you deaf oh hey get to water

how long five minutes

we're Space Command satellite coming up

the data we're getting looks strange

there's something going on guys

what is it

and nuclear weapons cause the moon to

tumble erratically does it increase the

moon's velocity yes it's gonna make

impact five days earlier their plan

didn't work

yeah

Thanks

it failed mr. president

cymbal dr. Rhodes and her team

I want another plan

is mr. president

president wants more options well it's a

little late we gave him the only option

maybe not I might have an idea the moon

is not tumbling rotating unevenly why

would have to be from the hyper mass

must have been pushed off-center the

nukes may have done something for us

after all

I think they've partially dislodged

Oberndorf moved it back closer towards

the surface of the Moon so what's your

plan actually it's yours

as some of you aware while at NASA I

headed a team developing a zero gravity

propulsion machine by means of

manipulating electromagnetic energy this

is the original design

what does it do it generates extreme

electromagnetic current we are going to

magnetize the moon's core literally turn

it into one gigantic electromagnet the

machine is self powered nuclear this

machine will create an instant of

reverse polarity which will start a

chain reaction within the core the brown

dwarf and the moon's core will repel

each other positive to positive like

trying to connect two positive sides of

a magnet and if we do this when the moon

is at its furthest point from Earth its

access peak the brown dwarf will be

expelled by the moon and drawn into the

Sun's gravity not earth the moon will

then retain a normal orbit around Earth

do that with this machine first we have

to build it mr. president

wait a minute build it where most of the

mechanisms can be built here the rest

will need to be assembled on the moon

you've got to be kidding

fortunately Issa had planned a man phase

if their lunar operation next month so

most of the infrastructure is already in

place how do you use this thing to

magnetize the core drill a hole and drop

it down thin steel carbon fullerene nano

wire newly developed by the US military

for the transfer of electromagnetic

energy will be attached to a converted

cruise missile with the other end

connected to the EEM machine and we've

Alex can you put out thank you we have

done some extensive spectrographic

analysis of the moon I believe that deep

feature canyons have been exploited all

the way to the core however because of

blast debris continued residual effects

from the impact it is impossible for us

to do any detailed thermal readings from

here the astronauts will have to

determine the most appropriate Canyon to

launch our missile into depending on

which of these canyons best suit our

needs

now once the canyon has been chosen the

astronauts will descend into it via a

jet propelled Rover and with on-site

thermal equipment begin detailed

subsurface terrain mapping for the

missiles guidance system which will

direct the missiles down into the core

heads how are you going to attach that

much wire to a missile it won't

should be not difficult ASEP that's what

we intended you know what what's ASEP

American space elevator prototype the

idea is to use ultra-thin cable to lift

cargo to an orbiting base still in

development the nanowire is both highly

conductive and incredibly strong we use

the wire from that technology as the

conductor from the IAM machine to the

warhead and we will convert the missile

to a copper plasma-based warhead after

the canyon has been mapped by the

astronauts and missiles turk home

guidance system will be programmed via

fire control from within the lunar

module as the missile embeds itself in

the moon's core the Dead War has copper

liner will collapse melt form a plasma

jet which will be directed out of the

front of the missile into the moon's

core effectively transferring the am

forcing the brown dwarf out of the moon

there is however one caveat it is

unlikely the astronauts will make it

back to the lunar module before the

moon's cores been magnetized but even if

they do there's little chance of the

lunar module escaping the magnetic field

it's essentially a one-way trip it

should be voluntary

can we pull this off as we said the

brown dwarf must be ejected when the

moon reaches access peak otherwise it'll

hit us instead of the Sun if there are

any delays or hiccups it'll be too late

that's why we have 16 days to launch to

give the Soyuz enough time to catch up

to the moon and to give our astronauts

enough time to implement the plan sir we

spend years training our astronauts for

a single mission the Russian Soyuz

advanced crew transport is already

prepped for their lunar mission 16 days

it can't be done

we need to reprogram every code from

scratch that's true we will but it's not

impossible

yam near the alternative gentlemen is

damn near

all right I'm sold let's consult our

allies get a consensus contact ESA's

lunar mission commander and the rest of

the space flight team do it get it built

let's enough thanks

we can't stay here

oh oh oh it's about hard

I lost my pills Jake go over there and

see if you can find some aspirin

my grandpa he needs aspirin he's got a

bad heart yeah well thank you grandpa I

got a bad headache

you stay away from

hello starett's young the mission

director of the European Space Agency's

lunar expedition hello the euro Soyuz

spacecraft has been prepped at their

launch facility in Kazakhstan and the

Russian space control was damaged during

the last search so Mission Control will

now be the European Space Agency in

Darmstadt Germany it'll take a miracle

to pull this off but I do believe we can

our biggest concern now is the Assembly

of that machine on the moon well most of

it can be similar our mission

specialists will need to practice final

assembly on dummy parts I'll supervise

yes we understand that but with the

electromagnetic interference there is

some concern that Mission Control may

lose communication with the astronauts

now we need someone up there with the

specialized and in-depth knowledge of

that machine

what are you choking I have no training

for this this is your brainchild dr.

Kittner

dr. Emerson as you've stated there is no

way to properly map the canyons terrain

from here an expert in moon geology with

a vast understanding of what has

happened since the impact is essential

simply no way we can train anyone down

here to do that no I'm I'm not an

astronaut there is no room for error

here gentlemen and we are running out of

time I'm sorry to you both but that is

the situation it's a thousand to one at

the astronaut sorry man

we understand they're too

we cannot take a chance with someone

else

our best hope lies in your hands

my children are still out there sir

walking paths

FEMA has nothing yet

it was unfair proposition no one is

gonna force you to do this I still have

time we can train someone else remember

when I said that things don't always

turn out the way we expect I remember

those talking about us

we had something I'm thinking a lot

about

I know Alex me too

I need you to do something for me Manny

I need you to say goodbye to my kids for

Alex we don't know whether listen I made

arrangements and

promised them I would never leave

without saying goodbye so I need you to

do that I want you to tell them that I'm

sorry okay look they're right there's

just no room for error

I'm the only one I can build that

machine for certain

they're gonna be very proud of their

father

listen

No

glad to catch

the components are being made at five

locations around the globe

US Japan Brazil France and Germany

facility here is hardened against the

MPS wall of our systems were preserved

during the last Surgenor operating

normally because of the increased mass

on the moon

you're gonna weigh twice as much there

as you do here so we've waited down your

training suits accordingly so they get

used to it

believe me over the next 10 days you

will go into sweat vomit and wish to God

that the media had heed us instead of

the moon gentlemen let me introduce you

to flight commander Courtney Betterton

from the US and lunar module pilot

Sergei painting confirmation oh it's

okay Roland Emerson there's me Alex oh

there was

well then if if we've all met

obscure stick what are you get it money

talks

Thanks

isn't dunk

married

engaged

was he with you I've never been married

but I see what changed my life like that

someone else success the launch of the

Euro Soyuz spacecraft is scheduled for

Tuesday we were told that there is a

very specific timeline for the

astronauts to reach the moon in their

attempt to alter its course no details

become available in other news

where is he he's outside trying to fix

one of those cars

I stretched

treating they're working in the cities

you believe it

can we have another candy bar we're both

hungry

fine yeah we should be nice to people

yeah why is that maybe they'll be nicer

to you

you can't come with us I must get to

Cologne there's no room you have to get

these supplies to another shelter you

can just get me to military base they

can contact my fiance dr. Roland Emerson

he's one of the astronauts he's on the

scientific advisory team he's advising

the government please I must get to him

I'm sorry

now please go back to the tent a buddy

lady needs a ride squeeze her in I can't

hey you are her hmm

I'm pregnant your wife

I'm buying her a ticket all right take

it I can't do that so the woman's

pregnant I'm asking you you just please

help her out

thank you

rum hey good luck

what's your name Pierce Bob Pierce I'm a

teen admin Thank You mr. Pierce

the successful launch the American Atlas

5 with supplies begins the first phase

of the lunar mission the cargo module

will lie on orbit around the moon

waiting for the astronauts to arrive

only a few days from now the astronauts

including two civilians Alex Kittner and

Roland Emerson have been training

vigorously for several days both will be

going into space for the very first time

both an essential part mr. Emerson yeah

your fiance

she is confirmed she's on her way here

thank you

you know

okay

Oh

reach in my shirt pocket

I want to tell your story mama when you

were babies it's still in your cribs you

don't when you were older your mother

she'd come into your room late at night

just to stare to adore you

you never woke you never knew some part

of you must have known she was there you

need to listen to that now to the part

that knows she's always there watching

over you

we'll be there with you always

your mom and I your father's

a good man your friends he

for the boys facilitates removal can I

come with you

because next time

to the moon

it's a dangerous mission

but we will be okay

No

no no you are coming back we are having

a baby you're going to be here you're

going to be here

no no no no no no

I will do everything I can to get back

here I promise you

I'm sorry

will you marry me yes

do you Martine Altman take all under

Emerson to be your lawfully wedded

husband for better or worse richer or

poorer till death do you part I do and

do you volunteer Mazen take Martina

Hartman to be your lawfully wedded wife

for better or worse richer or poorer

till death do you part

I do you may kiss

where are you going none of your

business

oh sorry about your Gramps sorry but

it's survival of the fittest now boys

the doers take us into town or something

my dad he's in Washington

ouch Kenner he's advising the president

he'll get a reward yeah

good

auxiliary power switching to auxiliary

power access arm retract and crew fall

back

main engine start over the main engine

start

one

dr. Emerson do we have final trajectory

points that's affirmative center I've

got the crystal-clear view from here now

several years reading beautifully will

proceed Thank You Sergei it's well

within our landing perimeters no change

all lunar conditions remain as predicted

lunar conditions are valid

commander Madison how do we look good

well we'll take control of the cargo

vessel launch from here copy that well

so far so good

provided nothing untoward happens you

should get them there

dr. Rhodes we just got a call a military

checkpoint is holding a man who claims

to have dr. kitten his children with dr.

Kittner this is Mission Control we have

something for you if you'd like to look

at your monitor

hey guys where's your grandfather

he he died

when you coming home daddy

I'm not sure pumpkin

why not

what the shock that I have to do I need

to shave the man in the moon

you take good care of your sister okay

you're the man of the house now remember

I love you both very much

I love you too dad I love you daddy

goodbye Jake

by sea

running out of time

coupling I coil for complete interval

ago continued sequence through the next

Lincoln

the moon will reach its axis peak in six

hours

they can't cannot this piece much longer

do they have enough oxygen

tap the reserve we don't have a choice

it's not connected try it again

coil five isn't taking the toppling find

out what the computers doing copy it's a

failed coil interface inside the linkers

chasis 4-h

five hours taxes we need to replace coil

fly it'll take at least five hours what

that's too long we won't have enough

time to launch the missile you have to

begin subsurface mapping now dr. Kittner

I can assemble the remaining couplers

the nanowire is secured to the missile

dr. Emerson yep mapping equipment loaded

you need to get that mapping done and

get this machine online now

dr. Rhodes then are way behind

then maybe it's time to start praying

for a miracle

who's to say science got it right

three hours for extraction

time there isn't enough time as our

final hours tick away we do not hear

reports of panic or lawlessness instead

oddly come a strange and beautiful piece

that has eluded us until now the irony

matters not

as many people spend these final hours

fulfilling their last wishes doing

things they've never taken time to do

conquering fears

finding love

finding faith

all coils are go family complete he

didn't it's done

what Alex turn it on

neighbors are holding always go locked

and ready for plasma ignition

fractures or wider than we thought

you can accelerate our descent any

increase in velocity you will be

shattered against the side of the canyon

Sergei we have no other chance

recalculate the rate of descent will try

make up the time copy

one hour 15 minutes to access PT the

machine is ready what's the holdup

almost in position mapping almost

complete let's not give up just yet

Courtney the a machine is locked and

powered all systems remain go waiting on

mapping sequence will be filters are

peaked signal strength is good

just a few more seconds

the site

prepare for sequence transfer

what's happening what just happened -

lost control

roll it do you copy

don't let go I got you I'm slipping

Oh tight don't let go hold on

Oh

Alex

I've lost Chladni world we need the

missiles final guidance sequence can you

transmit there's been some damage are

you reading anything the transmitter has

been disconnected from the hover tough

the missile is still blind Roland it

okay which means we have less than 10

minutes to fire it

that's amazing we have to launch now

still uploading come on we're gonna miss

the window come on

tracking missile

dr. Kittner I by some calculations the

mystery' time for us to escape the EON

field if we launch now or waiting for

rolled the hovercraft is enough for them

we are not leaving anyone behind

understood all right I'm stuck here

rolling power I think I can't you finish

touch over here

start the honking secrets okay we're not

leaving without you rolling

you have no choice started now say gay

now don't do it

three minutes to detonation

one minute to detonation

10 seconds to detonation

seven six five

four three two

hey maybe one see if it worked

Oh

orbit 1 this is Mission Control do you

copy orbit 1 this is Mission Control do

you copy

orbit 1 do you copy

we are the ways myself

alright folks let's get them home safely

I'm not gonna lose them now

wrote

dr. Kittner and cousin are pitting Huff

they were not on the moon their life

yeah

so but it looks like the related post

exploded the entire complex of fault

lines is it stable

yes it's stable

congratulations well done well done mr.

director congratulations thank you

everyone thank you good job

thank you

it's over

it worked

there will be countless casualties to be

sure and our prayers go with them but

our world has not been extinguished we

are here we are alive

temperatures will drop despite this

millions have gathered in spontaneous

celebrations throughout the world

christening what many are calling a new

beginning hostilities throughout the

world have ceased

a time to heal

perhaps a second chance to get it right

well done Thank You Jimmy

let me see

love you guys
