00:00:00Oh
00:00:30What's the current depth?
00:00:32Two kilometers.
00:00:34We have a resistance flow reading on seven of eight sensors.
00:00:38That's high.
00:00:40That's normal.
00:00:42But we are on a deadline, so let me know when it gets to eight.
00:00:46Let's go full torque.
00:00:48We've got to slow it up.
00:00:50Just so it won't crack.
00:00:52We're a half mile from the...
00:00:54Wait Bobby, I don't want to hear it.
00:00:56Okay, we should be two miles into solid war by now.
00:00:58I just want to have a good report by the end of this job.
00:01:04Well, I'd like to make it home by the end of this job.
00:01:08Bobby, I know you need this bonus just as much as I do.
00:01:16Okay.
00:01:18Fine.
00:01:20I'm not going full throttle.
00:01:22The guys up there, they're the ones that do recon and QC.
00:01:26Not us.
00:01:30Okay, fine, I'll do it.
00:01:32Wait, don't dominate.
00:01:34Dominate, come on.
00:01:36Okay.
00:01:37Who runs the shift?
00:01:38I don't, but I...
00:01:39No, I do. I run the shift.
00:01:41And this thing can do quavo?
00:01:43Easy.
00:01:44I do.
00:01:45Don't U.
00:01:46Get by the way.
00:01:52Dominate, we've got a lot of sensors going off south-east.
00:01:54We've hit a major fault line.
00:01:56Shut down the drill.
00:01:58Drill!
00:02:28Drill!
00:02:58Hi.
00:03:04Hi.
00:03:06Thanks for squeezing me in.
00:03:08It's good to see you.
00:03:10Yeah, um, well, you know, sometimes it pays to know a planetary scientist.
00:03:14Certainly does.
00:03:17Your hair's different.
00:03:20Oh, yeah, uh, doing a lot of things different these days.
00:03:25Looks good.
00:03:29Um, we should probably get inside.
00:03:31I've got a really busy day, so...
00:03:33Yeah, yeah, listen, what do you think...
00:03:35I don't know, dinner tonight?
00:03:37Just so I can thank you for all of this, we can catch up.
00:03:41Maybe go to that little Italian place we used to go to, you remember?
00:03:46Um, like I said, I have a really busy day.
00:03:51Rain check.
00:03:53Sure, yeah.
00:03:54Uh, so I have been telling my team about everything your aerospace firm's been doing on the moon.
00:04:00They're really excited to share ideas and swap war stories.
00:04:04Right.
00:04:06But are they excited enough to share your observatory's solar power plant?
00:04:12I mean, come on, my Nevada facility really needs that boost.
00:04:16Well, that's why we're here.
00:04:18Uh, so why don't we start off with a tour of the observatory
00:04:22and we can show you what we're working on,
00:04:24and then maybe, um, if there's time, we can take you to the solar power plant.
00:04:28It's just a couple miles up the road.
00:04:30Sure, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, listen.
00:04:32I just, I wanna thank you for meeting up.
00:04:36I know I'm not always that easy with meeting up,
00:04:42but I am trying to get better.
00:04:46I really am.
00:04:50Uh, thanks for saying that.
00:04:52Um, thanks.
00:04:53Wait, hey.
00:04:55You can count on me.
00:05:01We really should get inside.
00:05:03Yeah, right this way.
00:05:05We just upgraded our largest telescope, actually.
00:05:13I'll show you that in a minute.
00:05:15Oh, hey, by the way, did, uh,
00:05:17did your team take my advice on installing solar sails
00:05:20on the lobby team's heliostats?
00:05:22I mean, come on, we're not staying on the moon, right?
00:05:25Right, so there's some things you're not doing differently.
00:05:28We're still pushing everything to the limit, huh?
00:05:34Wow.
00:05:41This is Steve.
00:05:43Wait, slow down.
00:05:46TOR's mining corporation's space team,
00:05:48they drilled too fast, breaking a trillion newton meters.
00:05:51When they hit ore, a fault opened.
00:05:53Are there any casualties?
00:05:54Is my brother okay?
00:05:56Yes, many. The number's still unconfirmed.
00:05:59And the ship?
00:06:00Still intact.
00:06:01But it's in bad shape.
00:06:03It's unable to re-enter Earth in its current state.
00:06:05And, sir, the debris shot out rapidly during the collapse.
00:06:09It's accelerating on a trajectory towards Earth.
00:06:12The size and force means that some of that debris
00:06:14is close to Earth impact.
00:06:16There must be signal interference.
00:06:18We have multiple warning signals.
00:06:20Messages from JPL, Sawyer Aerospace,
00:06:22everyone warning us about it.
00:06:24Neo's are headed towards Earth,
00:06:26and projected here in the Mojave Desert.
00:06:27And there was no advance warning?
00:06:29It was generated in deep space.
00:06:30This is caused by a mining accident on the moon as of 7.50.
00:06:34Okay, okay. Emergency protocols.
00:06:36Now.
00:06:37I'm on it.
00:06:38Go! Go!
00:06:41Steve!
00:06:42A meteoroid, sir.
00:06:44Headed straight for Earth.
00:06:45You're saying that I caused a meteoroid to...
00:06:47Steve, wait!
00:06:48But some of the faster-moving moon fragments
00:06:50are already impacting around the globe.
00:06:52No, no, no!
00:06:53Steve!
00:06:54Including your current airspace.
00:06:58That's impact imminent.
00:06:59Impact imminent, Steve!
00:07:00You gotta get down!
00:07:01Kyle, can you...
00:07:02Steve, wait!
00:07:08Are you okay?
00:07:09Yeah, I think so.
00:07:10It must have hit the Pisgah crater.
00:07:12It was a dormant cinder cone volcano,
00:07:14but with an impact like that.
00:07:15All right, come on.
00:07:16We have to get out of here.
00:07:17No, no, no, no.
00:07:18Come on!
00:07:19Right now!
00:07:20Get inside!
00:07:21Why not?
00:07:22That's why!
00:07:26Come on.
00:07:27Let's go!
00:07:28We're reinforced and built to handle almost anything.
00:07:31So we'll be safe this year.
00:07:33We can also monitor the situation
00:07:34and hopefully help somehow.
00:07:38Any word on your brother?
00:07:40Logan and his crew are still alive,
00:07:42but the ship is wrecked,
00:07:44and they're stranded on the moon.
00:07:45There may be other survivors,
00:07:46but no confirmation yet.
00:07:48Gary, what do we know?
00:07:50We're running models
00:07:51to get as many estimates as possible,
00:07:52but we're dealing with very little warning.
00:07:54Our system should be able to handle it,
00:07:56but this is the first time
00:07:57we're dealing with this in real time.
00:07:59We just had a major impact on the crater
00:08:01and full eruption.
00:08:02Okay.
00:08:03What's the lava flow trajectory look like?
00:08:05We should be okay for now,
00:08:06but we may not be
00:08:07if there's a second larger eruption.
00:08:08Well, we...
00:08:09I mean, we can't stop a meteoroid
00:08:11if we don't have the equipment.
00:08:13Agreed.
00:08:14But with a trail of meteors
00:08:15headed toward Earth and...
00:08:16And a rather large meteoroid
00:08:18on a collision course with this planet.
00:08:20Oh.
00:08:21By the way, everyone,
00:08:22this is Steve Sawyer.
00:08:23His team of international astronauts,
00:08:25including his brother Logan,
00:08:26are stranded in a ship on the moon.
00:08:27Do we need to confirm
00:08:28the timeline on the NEO?
00:08:29Carrie, run a collision ETA model, please.
00:08:32Okay.
00:08:33Um, estimated collision...
00:08:3512 hours.
00:08:37And we're still finalizing the location.
00:08:40A collision this size,
00:08:41we are done here.
00:08:42It won't matter where it lands.
00:08:43It'll be complete annihilation.
00:08:45Carrie, call Sawyer Aerospace.
00:08:47Those are the codes.
00:08:52No response.
00:08:53All right, just...
00:08:54just... just keep trying.
00:08:55Call on the launch pad outside the lunar mine.
00:08:58I... I need to debrief Logan,
00:08:59see if there's anything he can do
00:09:00on the lunar side.
00:09:01Look, look, my...
00:09:02My brother will do whatever it takes
00:09:04to save humanity,
00:09:05but he will not allow me
00:09:07to rescue him.
00:09:08Hello?
00:09:09Yes, I copy.
00:09:11I have Kyle from Sawyer Aerospace.
00:09:13Sawyer Aerospace,
00:09:14this is Mojave Later Observatory.
00:09:16Do you read?
00:09:17Kyle, can you hear me?
00:09:18Steve,
00:09:19we have yet to make contact,
00:09:20but we're working with local
00:09:21and national authorities.
00:09:23Now the...
00:09:25Incoming!
00:09:28Kyle.
00:09:30Kyle, can you hear me?
00:09:31Come in.
00:09:32Try again, try again.
00:09:33Sir, there's no response.
00:09:38I'm sorry, Mr. Sawyer.
00:09:40Um, I just got confirmation
00:09:42that Sawyer Aerospace has been destroyed.
00:09:49Steve, I am so sorry.
00:09:50I know how hard you worked for this,
00:09:52but we have to move quickly
00:09:54if we want any chance
00:09:55of stopping this meteor.
00:09:58With... with the facility gone,
00:10:00Taurus Mining Corps has their base of operations
00:10:03in the same facility.
00:10:05We're flying solo here.
00:10:07Okay, so how can we hope?
00:10:09Carrie, try and get the Lunafive ship to respond, please.
00:10:13Carrie, before you do that,
00:10:14let's see what we're working with here.
00:10:16Did you do a neo-threat assessment?
00:10:18All agencies confirm the meteoroid
00:10:20to be roughly the size of Manhattan.
00:10:23Plus, that corresponds with what our LIDAR render provides.
00:10:27The explosion will result in several waves of debris
00:10:29following the meteoroid.
00:10:31Look, we need to get to the neo before the fragments
00:10:33start hitting us first.
00:10:36If you can get the DOD on,
00:10:37we need to advise them that the new base of operations
00:10:39is here at the observatory.
00:10:41Sir?
00:10:42I have Luna 5.
00:10:44All right, put... put them through.
00:10:47Luna 5 on the line.
00:10:51Steve?
00:10:52Logan?
00:10:54I'm right here, brother.
00:10:55I can hear you loud and clear.
00:10:56Steve, it's good to hear your voice.
00:10:58We're still trying to figure out the situation,
00:11:00but our O2 reserves are looking a little light up here.
00:11:03We're gonna get you out of there, okay?
00:11:04I appreciate that, but worry about Earth first.
00:11:07Well, that's why we have you.
00:11:11General Madden from the Pentagon
00:11:12is on open communications.
00:11:14K... Carrie, I need you
00:11:16to keep the Luna 5 line open and listening.
00:11:19Okay, I'm on it.
00:11:23Go for Steve.
00:11:24Sawyer.
00:11:25General Madden.
00:11:26Steve!
00:11:27We are a Code Red Neo threat alert,
00:11:29and the government doesn't trust you
00:11:30to come up with a viable solution
00:11:32to stop the meteoroid
00:11:33because they believe this accident is your fault.
00:11:35Sir, I have my brother, Captain Bowden,
00:11:38of Luna 5 on the comm as well.
00:11:40He is on the moon,
00:11:41and hopefully able to offer some insight.
00:11:44Sir, we have never encountered an accident on this scale,
00:11:47nor could we have predicted a mass of this side
00:11:50headed towards Earth.
00:11:51We've done good work together in the past,
00:11:53building a lunar bases on the moon.
00:11:54All right, I know that you're a mining board.
00:11:56I know you didn't do this,
00:11:58but the mining company that you worked for did.
00:12:00Sir, I'm asking you to please let me help.
00:12:02This is what I do!
00:12:03I have my orders.
00:12:05I'm there to follow military protocol
00:12:07and we're working with about a thousand other contractors
00:12:09in every other country on Earth
00:12:11to try to stop this thing.
00:12:12Look, I'll take your suggestions into consideration,
00:12:15but you need to tell me everything that you know now
00:12:17because the authorities,
00:12:18they want nothing to do with you
00:12:19or any of your ideas.
00:12:21And I'm not sure they're even gonna allow me
00:12:22to contact you after this.
00:12:24General, I... please.
00:12:27You're gonna have me initiate a global defense
00:12:32using nuclear weapons if there are no other options.
00:12:35We have only ETA 12 hours to impact.
00:12:37Sir, that's impossible.
00:12:39I know, I know.
00:12:40I'm sorry.
00:12:41I'm putting in an emergency action plan in place.
00:12:43I've been trying to get the Joint Chiefs
00:12:45and the UN to listen to be open to your input,
00:12:47but they won't budge.
00:12:48Even if you come up with a viable solution,
00:12:50you're probably gonna have to implement it on your own.
00:12:52Logan, did you get all that?
00:12:53Initiate Plan 5L.
00:12:55Yes.
00:12:56On it.
00:12:57Reserve power.
00:12:58Shields up.
00:12:59Initiating rescue contact and warning systems
00:13:00of nearby ships.
00:13:01Alright, listen.
00:13:02Focus on board lasers
00:13:03and assess any current equipment
00:13:05that we might be able to use as defense.
00:13:07But as far as stopping a cobalt meteor movie,
00:13:11it's extremely conductive
00:13:13and susceptible to electromagnetic forces.
00:13:15I-I see only two courses of action here.
00:13:17We either blow the damn thing up,
00:13:19or we push it away.
00:13:21I vote we push it away.
00:13:22I vote that too.
00:13:23Alright then, let's get to work.
00:13:25Just good luck.
00:13:27And I pray you fix this thing
00:13:28before the government does it for you.
00:13:34Logan!
00:13:39Steve?
00:13:42Steve, can you hear me?
00:13:46Logan!
00:13:47It-it-it might.
00:13:48It might.
00:13:49It might.
00:13:50Just be a poor connection, okay?
00:13:51Let's try the other room, okay?
00:13:52Let's go.
00:13:53Let's go.
00:13:54Steve?
00:13:55Steve!
00:13:56Can you hear me?
00:13:57Steve!
00:13:58Captain, we've lost all main power board the ship from a massive EMP.
00:13:59Yep.
00:14:00We've got a limited supply of backup power, not nearly enough O2 or thrust to get us back home.
00:14:05So, I don't know how we're gonna stop this thing, but we gotta do everything that we can to get off this rock,
00:14:07and help them save Earth.
00:14:08Or there isn't gonna be a home to get back to.
00:14:09If we don't lift off soon with the moon's current position, we may run out of oxygen before we reach the Earth.
00:14:10We're gonna be able to do everything that we can to get off this rock and help them save Earth,
00:14:12or there isn't gonna be a home to get back to.
00:14:13What are we gonna be able to do everything that we can to get off this rock,
00:14:14and help them save Earth?
00:14:15Yeah.
00:14:16We got a limited supply of backup power, not nearly enough O2 or thrust to get us back home.
00:14:19So, I don't know how we're gonna stop this thing, but we gotta do everything that we can to get off this rock,
00:14:26and help them save Earth, or there isn't gonna be a home to get back to.
00:14:30If we don't lift off soon with the moon's current position,
00:14:34we may run out of oxygen before we reach the Earth.
00:14:37Well, then, I suggest we get going.
00:14:39Logan, look.
00:14:42they must have survived the initial blast nina prep the decompression chamber let's get them
00:14:51inside jing let's guide them in no wait the outage already sapped some of the backup power
00:14:57with hour or two low it's going to be tough enough for three people we can use the tanks
00:15:02in our suits to cut our loss of the way back in good because we're not leaving them out there nina
00:15:06okay but with so much debris floating around someone could get knocked into space we need to
00:15:13reroute power to the tether good so you're tied to the ship nina i'm lighter than you if i'm on the
00:15:18tether it'll eat up less power great jing and i'll go you get power to the tether be careful keep your
00:15:23tanks on minimum and keep an eye on your levels and come back the second you hear a warning i cannot
00:15:29get back to earth without you here's next row too radios keep in touch on radio they use a separate
00:15:36battery and pointed out power great thank you
00:15:42gotcha
00:15:45i've got it thank you
00:15:5810 meters straight ahead i see them stay there we're coming to you it's okay we're here to help
00:16:13logon jing do you copy
00:16:24answer
00:16:32i'm heading out there
00:16:37let's go home
00:17:02home is about to be destroyed
00:17:09we need contact luna 5 is there any way to boost the signal here
00:17:28the debris field around the area is too thick
00:17:29try to try to detect the tracking beacon they should still have battery reserves even after
00:17:33even after the emp if they have power left they should still send the signal i have a faint one
00:17:38now but it's going in and out okay then let's try morse code
00:17:41an imminent threat has been detected the general's back on the line
00:17:47okay
00:17:48look we are prepping an international nuclear response but we can only see the leading edge of the debris field
00:17:53if you have any solutions then this is the time to mention them the d.o.d is very happy with the the dmp didn't hit us on earth as well
00:17:59general general this is dr amanda sawyer tell them not to celebrate just yet the debris cloud will detonate
00:18:04any nuclear weapons before they reach the meteoroid behind it all incoming neos regardless of size
00:18:10will bring all the fallout back to earth the largest neo was already set to annihilate the entire planet a
00:18:16nuclear fallout of this magnitude what small chance we had of saving this earth will be non-existent
00:18:23will be non-existent
00:18:25ETS now lasts 12 hours
00:18:27fields leading edge is continuing to approach southwest u.s. now moving coast to coast
00:18:31and the u.n. and joint chiefs will delay a new strike without a clear viable second solution
00:18:35but NASA says that there might be a pocket of gas inside the meteoroid is that something we can fire upon to maybe push the knee off course
00:18:43uh no no not at this stage general
00:18:46uh NASA might be correct but any gases trapped in the cobalt are frozen solid
00:18:51sir before the EMP hit the moon we were looking into another course of action
00:18:55but we need Luna 5 and Logan's help we need to get him back on the comms now
00:19:01short of a close proximity response mr. sawyer i can't see another way
00:19:05and that is exactly what i'm proposing a close proximity response
00:19:09make this quick steve
00:19:11Logan's ship Luna 5 is on a landing site near the collapsed mine
00:19:17it has access to materials we can use to deflect the meteorite away from earth
00:19:21there is massive surface cracking near Luna 5
00:19:25the area is unstable
00:19:27those cracks correspond with steel beams supporting 3,000 miles of caitlin
00:19:31if we collapse the beams
00:19:33Logan can engineer an electromagnetic pulse from the moon surface
00:19:36and with no atmosphere on the moon to interfere with the pulse the full blast of the pulse should be enough
00:19:42push the meteoroids trajectory away from earth
00:19:44you sure this will work
00:19:46sir it will magnetize the meteor altering its polarity that's it that's basic laws of attraction you put enough stress on two objects and it changes their relationship and trajectory
00:19:58so it's reversing the dynamic pushing the Neo away
00:20:04but we have to be careful because the interior of the power station
00:20:08the power station is pressurized for breathable air for the miners
00:20:12it could explode back outward
00:20:14that's uh that's a good point
00:20:16the collapse itself
00:20:18could generate a wave of wreckage following the EMP
00:20:20that might push the Neo toward earth even faster
00:20:22it's a bit it's a big risk
00:20:24look it's total annihilation regardless
00:20:26do what you must
00:20:28but remember you're on your own
00:20:30I won't deny talking to you if I have to
00:20:32understood sir
00:20:33send a signal through to the ship
00:20:34bombard Logan with frequencies
00:20:36until one of them cuts through the debris fields
00:20:38and please let them know to prep the ship for the EMP
00:20:42the human body isn't
00:20:44it's not a great conductor
00:20:45so they'll be fine as long as they're on the ship
00:20:48but they absolutely
00:20:50have to shut down all the power
00:20:52for a momentary electrical surge
00:20:54I'm on it
00:20:56Luna 5 this is Mojave Command
00:20:58do you read? Luna 5 this is Mojave Command
00:21:00do you read?
00:21:02this is Captain Logan Sawyer
00:21:04over we read you
00:21:08Logan it's me
00:21:12tell me you're okay
00:21:14yeah well we're okay so far
00:21:16we got two survivors from the oil mining company
00:21:20it's my fault
00:21:22no
00:21:23it's not your fault Steve
00:21:25but we got bigger fish to fry up here
00:21:27we got a damaged ship
00:21:29and a cloud of fragments continuously headed towards earth
00:21:32before the major Neo strike
00:21:34Logan look
00:21:36if you can find a way to sever the support beams
00:21:38holding the cables under the mine's power station
00:21:40we can generate an EMP to knock the Neo off course
00:21:42but you absolutely have to be careful
00:21:44too much force
00:21:46and push the meteoroid to earth too fast
00:21:48careful?
00:21:50do you remember that time you wanted to make your famous hamburgers?
00:21:53and I had to drive you all the way across town
00:21:56so that you could get the good meat from Romeo's
00:21:58and on the way my phone slipped out
00:22:00and got wedged under the brake
00:22:02in Dad's car
00:22:04yeah
00:22:05yeah I remember
00:22:06you
00:22:07rolled through a four-way stop
00:22:09yeah
00:22:10and what did I do?
00:22:11instead of focusing on the brake
00:22:13you actually stepped on the gas
00:22:15to get clear of the danger
00:22:17that's right
00:22:19that's right
00:22:20because with some problems
00:22:22it doesn't help to slow down
00:22:23and that's what we're gonna do here today
00:22:25we are gonna step on the gas
00:22:29look
00:22:30I know you like to do things your own way brother
00:22:33but maybe this time
00:22:37just don't be too stubborn
00:22:39just don't be too stubborn
00:22:41yeah
00:22:42well
00:22:43I promise
00:22:44that when it is time to put on the brakes
00:22:45I will
00:22:46and hey
00:22:47if I
00:22:48when we pull this off
00:22:51I'm gonna want you to
00:22:53cook me up some of those burgers
00:22:55that I love so much
00:22:56deal?
00:22:57that's a deal
00:23:03get down
00:23:04get down
00:23:05stay down
00:23:06stay down
00:23:07I think we're okay now
00:23:12I think we're okay now
00:23:17let's
00:23:18let's
00:23:19let's
00:23:20let's get out of here
00:23:21we've lost our entire network
00:23:22we have no communication
00:23:23it's earthquakes induced by the
00:23:26increase in volcanic activity
00:23:28the edge is moving
00:23:30coast to coast
00:23:31which means the range
00:23:32will reach across the Atlantic
00:23:33and impact the entire globe
00:23:35who knows how many
00:23:36bridges will take down with it
00:23:37we cannot lose access to our shared network now
00:23:41it's the only thing that connects us
00:23:43to anything
00:23:44we need to reconnect our comms
00:23:46to run on solar power
00:23:48can you do that?
00:23:49Amanda
00:23:51we've got nothing
00:23:53the underground cabling between the solar power station and the observatory must have been severed
00:23:57okay
00:23:58well that the power station is just over three miles away
00:24:02we're never gonna make it when there's another eruption imminent
00:24:05where else are the NEOS projected to hit?
00:24:08the last report I received showed additional alerts from our Madrid observatory showing other moon fragments headed towards Barcelona
00:24:14other moon fragments are imminent worldwide but we've been yet to be pinpointed to an exact location
00:24:20the more damage done to earth the less resources we have to stop the meteorite
00:24:24we need Logan back online ASAP
00:24:29down, down, stay down
00:24:31down, down, stay down
00:24:33is everyone okay?
00:24:34yeah
00:24:35it's okay, it's okay
00:24:37we gotta get out of here
00:24:38is everyone good?
00:24:39yeah, let's go
00:24:40let's go
00:24:41let's go
00:24:42you okay?
00:24:43Steve, are you there?
00:24:51Steve, do you read us?
00:24:53Captain, their signal is totally dark
00:24:55they have no radio communication at all
00:24:59okay, their last correspondence was about collapsing all of the power grids here, right?
00:25:05to bring all of the power modules together to essentially create an electromagnetic pulse
00:25:10right? is that possible?
00:25:12you're asking us to blow those beams underneath?
00:25:15there's a fusion powered orc welder in portal 9 in the power station
00:25:20about a hundred yards from our ship
00:25:22okay
00:25:23no
00:25:24we cut that main tide, it'll snap up like a Venus flytrap
00:25:28it could crash the whole ship when take off
00:25:31okay, well then we're gonna have to time it perfectly
00:25:34listen
00:25:35look, if all of the power lines tied to the beam
00:25:39come together
00:25:40it'll essentially whip an EMP straight at the meteoroid
00:25:44yes, assuming nothing impacts the timing
00:25:47listen, we are 20 degrees north of the mine
00:25:49so a pulse from here will knock it off by 20 degrees
00:25:52yeah, that's enough for it to miss the Earth
00:25:54great
00:25:55Dave and Christine patch us into the main power line outside the ship
00:25:58cut that beam in the power station
00:26:00and then get back here as soon as you possibly can
00:26:03once we're below the surface it will give us more gravity and traction to maneuver fast
00:26:07Steve?
00:26:09yeah
00:26:10are you ready?
00:26:11let's do it
00:26:20Jane, try and connect me to Mojave again
00:26:22how's our voltage on the ship?
00:26:36we're running at 30%, we need you to patch us in
00:26:39we're on a patch above the grid
00:26:43fine
00:26:44all right
00:26:46let's do it
00:26:48no
00:26:49your point is active
00:26:50Nina
00:26:53let's prep for launch
00:26:54copy that captain
00:26:56this is gonna be real close
00:26:58let's get inside and do this
00:27:00I'm gonna do this.
00:27:04Dave and Christine, as soon as you cut that tie,
00:27:07let us know so we can rev the engines.
00:27:09You don't have to ask us twice, Captain.
00:27:11The main tie is a custom joint graded at 100,000 pounds.
00:27:15We cut it back 80%.
00:27:17They don't give it about a minute.
00:27:20How long did it take them to get to that port?
00:27:22It took them 30 seconds just to get halfway.
00:27:26Dave, what if you cut it to 50%?
00:27:27Oh, no can do, Captain.
00:27:29Austin O'Bear is a T-I-S square.
00:27:32At 50%, it'll hold about a half hour, if we're lucky.
00:27:36But that's, uh, that's way too long.
00:27:38Logan, at that rate, the meteoroid will be crossing back
00:27:41through our flight path before it misses Earth.
00:27:43We'd run out of oxygen.
00:27:44I think we cut it to 75%.
00:27:45Dave, cut it to 75%.
00:27:47Dave, with this section of the electric station survivors,
00:27:52there's still my way to fill in here.
00:27:53Christine, what are you saying?
00:27:54We said on a distress call, wait a bit,
00:27:55and then haul the survivors up to the ship?
00:27:57Yeah.
00:27:58Steve, we have to cut the line and go.
00:28:00We don't know if the barracks collapsed in a mine or not.
00:28:04What are you doing?
00:28:08Christine, I'm getting an emergency rescue signal
00:28:11on your radio.
00:28:14Find anyone and everyone here
00:28:15that needs to get home, Captain.
00:28:17Wait, they don't have the time.
00:28:20Good.
00:28:20Get as many as you can and get here quick.
00:28:22We have to find a more stable communication source.
00:28:42I can't leave.
00:28:43I have to verify if Logan is even sending that EMP.
00:28:46Okay, I'm going to check the telescope now.
00:28:48It's got an emergency battery.
00:28:50The magnification reaches within two square miles of Logan,
00:28:53so we should be able to see what they're up to.
00:28:55But the feed between the telescope and the monitor has gone dark.
00:28:57You'll have to go to the roof to connect to a physical port.
00:29:00Okay.
00:29:00If Logan is initiating our plan, he only has about a minute.
00:29:03He'll get it done.
00:29:04No, I go.
00:29:08I'm the only one who knows how to operate that telescope fast enough.
00:29:12Fine.
00:29:13Then I go with you.
00:29:15Okay.
00:29:15Gary, just keep monitoring activity
00:29:17and we'll be back as soon as we can.
00:29:19Be careful.
00:29:19Okay, will do.
00:29:20Okay.
00:29:23We're going to have to.
00:29:23Ready?
00:29:24One, two, one.
00:29:30Okay, we have to move fast.
00:29:32Toxic gas levels in the air getting dangerously high.
00:29:35Wait.
00:29:38Go back.
00:29:39No, I'm the only one who knows where everything is.
00:29:42Okay?
00:29:43Just be careful.
00:29:50You heard the timeline.
00:29:51Christine, we have to go.
00:29:53We cut it at 70%.
00:29:55No.
00:29:56It applies this time before it gives away.
00:29:58We search for survivors.
00:29:59No man left behind.
00:30:00Christine, no.
00:30:02I'll be back by the time you took us.
00:30:03Christine, come on, no.
00:30:15Okay.
00:30:2610%.
00:30:26Power's at 85%.
00:30:35Circuits are holding.
00:30:37Prep for launch.
00:30:38Dave, what's our status?
00:30:42We're at 60%.
00:30:43We're at 60%.
00:30:45Christine, we are at 75%.
00:30:52We got to go.
00:30:53Dave and Christine, I am engaging the manual hatch on the stern of the ship.
00:30:57Get here now.
00:31:1230 seconds.
00:31:14There's no one.
00:31:15They must be dead.
00:31:16Come on, Christine.
00:31:17We got to go.
00:31:17Let's go.
00:31:18Come on.
00:31:18Hold the launch.
00:31:19We're on the way.
00:31:20Be careful.
00:31:23I don't know how stable this is.
00:31:24Here.
00:31:27Okay.
00:31:29Ah!
00:31:30Oh, be careful.
00:31:32It's like walking through a minefield.
00:31:34Yeah.
00:31:35Okay.
00:31:35This leads us up to the telescope cables.
00:31:38I oversaw the installation of all of it, so I know where it is.
00:31:41I think I see the problem here.
00:31:54No, no, no.
00:31:55Don't touch her.
00:31:56The voltage is dangerously high, and you could get electrocuted.
00:31:59We have to be careful.
00:32:01Just give me a sec.
00:32:01These wires are too thick to use a conventional twist connector.
00:32:07These clamps have AC and audio-visual capability.
00:32:10They can reconnect any severed connections.
00:32:12Here, go.
00:32:14Okay.
00:32:16Watch out!
00:32:21You okay?
00:32:24Yeah.
00:32:24All right.
00:32:29All right.
00:32:29Just like we're able to connect this.
00:32:33That's it.
00:32:34That's Logan's ship.
00:32:54No!
00:32:56Looks like Dave and Christine didn't make it.
00:33:02Nina, there's a huge crack beneath the ship.
00:33:05Go for launch.
00:33:06Ignition!
00:33:08Lift up!
00:33:19Logan.
00:33:20He's clear.
00:33:21He's clear.
00:33:22Okay.
00:33:22It didn't work.
00:33:24Go for Madden.
00:33:29Yes, we acknowledge the meteoroid is accelerating.
00:33:32Whatever attempt the Luna 5 and remaining crew on the moon have made to stop the meteoroid.
00:33:39That's failed.
00:33:40Look, tell the Joint Chiefs that it's going to take at least 200 gigatons of TNT,
00:33:44or the equivalent of about 10 million Hiroshima-sized bombs,
00:33:48to stop the meteoroid,
00:33:49and the surrounding debris field will carry all the nuclear fallout straight back down to Earth.
00:33:52I'm in here.
00:33:54I'm in here.
00:33:57I'm closer.
00:33:58You okay?
00:34:01Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
00:34:06Can we both saw all the EMP hit the meteor before the power station wreckage?
00:34:11He even caught up to it.
00:34:12That has to get us something.
00:34:13It's polarity has to have been affected, at least marginally.
00:34:18With the stations, circuits, Fred, we can gaze into a telescope all day long.
00:34:23It won't do us any good if we can't communicate with anyone.
00:34:25Logan, Logan's track is still the best ship in the closest range to stop the NEO.
00:34:33We haven't been able to assess any weapons or power sources here on Earth.
00:34:37What about a gravity tractor?
00:34:39No.
00:34:40Logan's ship might get close enough, but even if he began circling the meteoroid hundreds of times,
00:34:47it would take years for... to create a gravity tractor.
00:34:52Logan's ship might be completely disabled after yet another direct EMP hit,
00:34:58in which case his filtration system might be damaged and he'll run out of oxygen.
00:35:04There we go.
00:35:05You gotta get out of here.
00:35:07You get up, I'll walk.
00:35:08Okay.
00:35:10Okay.
00:35:11Okay, this way.
00:35:13That blast fried almost all our circuits.
00:35:23I was trying, it didn't work.
00:35:24I had direct visual on it.
00:35:26The wreckage from the implosion shot out of the power station.
00:35:29And by my calculations, it's pushing the meteoroid straight at the Earth even faster.
00:35:35Logan, we have to do something.
00:35:36Remember, the Defense Department still wants to nuke it.
00:35:39That nuclear blast will kill us and everyone on Earth.
00:35:43Look at this, Jing.
00:35:50There's one sustained signal here.
00:35:52An intense polarity.
00:35:54That's in the exact quadrant as a meteoroid.
00:35:57That's right.
00:35:58Which means the pulse didn't magnetize it enough to knock it off course, but it is magnetized.
00:36:05Unfortunately, it's under Earth's gravitational pull now, which means the angle of incidence to stop it from striking Earth is 50% greater.
00:36:15We are going to need that much more power.
00:36:25Help!
00:36:26Help, my leg is pinned!
00:36:28Carrie.
00:36:29We don't have much time here, Carrie.
00:36:34One more quake and this whole building is going to come down.
00:36:37Okay.
00:36:38Can you wiggle your toes?
00:36:39Um, um, yeah.
00:36:41Yeah.
00:36:42Here's what we're going to do.
00:36:43We're going to lift this up and then slide you out.
00:36:46Okay?
00:36:47All right, come over here.
00:36:48On the count of three.
00:36:49Ready?
00:36:50One, two, three.
00:36:52Clear her, clear her, clear her.
00:36:55Okay.
00:36:56Get out.
00:36:56You're out.
00:36:57Okay.
00:36:58Okay, she's clear.
00:37:00Okay.
00:37:00We got to get her.
00:37:02To another location.
00:37:04Can you stand?
00:37:05Um, yeah.
00:37:07Yeah, I think.
00:37:11Here, put your arm around.
00:37:14Ready?
00:37:15Let's go.
00:37:16Okay.
00:37:17Let's get you to the bunker.
00:37:19There's supplies, water, and food for four weeks.
00:37:22You've got to get as many people down here as you can.
00:37:24But, but you don't need my help.
00:37:25No.
00:37:26No.
00:37:28We have to get to the solar power station.
00:37:30They have resources there.
00:37:33Electric, radio.
00:37:35We can regain communication with Logan and General Madden.
00:37:38The solar power plant is three miles from here.
00:37:41We might have to go on foot, okay?
00:37:42You're safer here.
00:37:43Okay?
00:37:44Okay.
00:37:44I understand.
00:37:48Set her up.
00:37:49Set her up here.
00:37:52Here, watch your leg.
00:37:53Watch your leg.
00:37:54I got you.
00:37:56Got it?
00:37:57Yeah.
00:37:58Okay.
00:37:58Okay.
00:37:58Okay.
00:38:05Well?
00:38:07You got it?
00:38:08It's not ideal, but, uh, believe me, it could come in handy.
00:38:11So, I've been racking my brain about something.
00:38:16What about the electricity in the solar power station?
00:38:18Could that produce a pulse?
00:38:20We would need an entire engineering team to form a circuit large enough to do that.
00:38:25Even an electrical bolt would not make it through the atmosphere.
00:38:30Right.
00:38:30A circuit would need a big enough circuit to give it another shot.
00:38:33Yeah, I mean, but there's nothing that size anywhere near here.
00:38:37I mean, we'd need something the size of a, uh, a large Bade-Drawn Collider to do that.
00:38:45So, we get a large Bade-Drawn Collider.
00:38:48I know the director of CERN.
00:38:50I can give him a call when we get to the power plant.
00:38:51Yeah, yeah.
00:38:52I know you do.
00:38:53We had dinner at his house, remember?
00:38:54Right.
00:38:57With Cobalt and a meteorite, it could be conductive enough that a pulse wouldn't even be effective.
00:39:03Well, we have to try.
00:39:05I mean, it's that or we sit around and wait for the end of the world.
00:39:12Gary, good luck.
00:39:15I got it, I got it.
00:39:16Not it.
00:39:17Go, just go.
00:39:24She's equipped with everything we need.
00:39:36Always prepared, I'll give you that.
00:39:38Always.
00:39:40I've got satellite radios.
00:39:42I won't think we'll be able to get any reception.
00:39:44With all the atmospheric interference, I'm gonna have to find a clearer place with the last ash.
00:39:48The whole network is down.
00:39:50Ow, I see it, I see it.
00:39:58Oh, no.
00:40:00The tires.
00:40:02We can't drive any further.
00:40:03You all right?
00:40:04There's a police call box on the highway.
00:40:07Just up ahead.
00:40:08We should be able to call.
00:40:09They can patch us through to CERN.
00:40:10You got that?
00:40:25I got it, got it.
00:40:28The sheriff runs out security detail at the observatory.
00:40:36If he's still at the station, he should be able to patch us straight through.
00:40:39Yeah, I know the sheriff, too.
00:40:40He helped me fast-track the permits for the power cavers running to the observatory.
00:40:46You did that?
00:40:47Yeah, you were working 18 hours a day, trying to get the observatory up and running.
00:40:52They asked for my help, remember?
00:40:54Yeah.
00:40:55I remember.
00:40:55Yes, this is Steve and Amanda Sawyer from the observatory for Sheriff Parda.
00:41:09Yes, Sheriff, I need you to patch me through directly to CERN laboratories in Switzerland,
00:41:14if you can get a call out.
00:41:17Yes, CERN laboratories.
00:41:18It's a matter of life and death.
00:41:21If CERN doesn't take it out, then maybe my brother can send an EMP by rerouting power from his LiDAR.
00:41:28Sir, we will do whatever we have to do to fix this.
00:41:33Thank you, sir.
00:41:37He's contacting CERN to enable electromagnetopulse.
00:41:40Okay.
00:41:40So, I'm taking it the visuals aren't very good, which is why we have to help my brother via a telescope?
00:41:46Yeah, with the ash and the daylight, it makes the visibility pretty tough.
00:41:52But, uh, this scope has digital surveying functions, so we might be able to get his trajectory.
00:41:58Secretary General, we have a 19-degree trajectory change, with real-time adjustments now at 23 degrees.
00:42:03The EOS change course, another non-nuclear strike will neutralize the threat.
00:42:07Secretary General, stand by.
00:42:09I'm receiving your priority call from Switzerland.
00:42:11General Madden, slow down, Doctor.
00:42:16What's happening?
00:42:18Doctor, I saw your team has already attempted strike.
00:42:21Hundreds of miles?
00:42:24What?
00:42:25Doctor, the UN is about to launch...
00:42:27Secretary General, you hold that launch!
00:42:37Wow.
00:42:38Is that a nuclear explosion?
00:42:42Doesn't resemble an explosion.
00:42:45It looks like an electrical arc on the Earth.
00:42:48Poshu moi.
00:42:50It's incredibly large.
00:42:52Jing, have we re-established connection with the Mojave Observatory?
00:43:02Negative, Logan.
00:43:04And the ISS reports heavy damage all throughout that region.
00:43:07God.
00:43:09I mean, it looks like lightning, but it isn't subsiding.
00:43:12There is an immense charge.
00:43:14Jing, can you get a reading on its velocity?
00:43:16It's in the ionosphere now, but its position is fixed, drifting 10 degrees northeast.
00:43:29They must have sent a charge up to try and stop the meteoroid.
00:43:34According to my calculations, the electrical arc didn't do much.
00:43:38It went right through the cobalt.
00:43:39With the Earth rotating under it, the Earth's magnetic field is changing its trajectory.
00:43:44Look, it's moving 10 degrees northeast, which puts it right.
00:43:48San Francisco.
00:43:50It's starting to pull objects from orbit towards San Francisco.
00:43:52The pulse we sent from that LHC in Switzerland, it didn't work.
00:44:12I have a trajectory heading on the fragments.
00:44:15The pulse changed the direction slightly.
00:44:18The scope telemetry projected longitude and latitude of...
00:44:23Steve.
00:44:25Meteors just hit San Francisco.
00:44:26All the EMP disturbances, they're increasing the Earth's tectonic activity even more now.
00:44:48Still two miles to the power plant.
00:44:52We'll see ETA on the impact.
00:44:53The last recorded ETA was at the observatory.
00:44:56It was two hours.
00:44:58But, I mean, with the new trajectory, it couldn't be more than an hour and a half at best.
00:45:04Steve, I think it's time we call Madden.
00:45:07Maybe we have to do the nuclear strike.
00:45:10I don't want the nuclear option.
00:45:12I don't either.
00:45:14But at this point, if we can save some people, it's better than nothing.
00:45:18You know what?
00:45:19Maybe a half an hour ago, they would have.
00:45:22But not now.
00:45:23Not with the nuclear fallout and the meteor.
00:45:29I won't have them patch me through to NASA.
00:45:32I'll see what they can do.
00:45:39Damn it.
00:45:41The earthquake knocked out the landline.
00:45:45Our last chance is the solar power plant.
00:45:49Okay.
00:45:51That'll get us power and communication.
00:46:00No.
00:46:04I'm not going to be able to breathe much longer out here.
00:46:06We need to reach Logan.
00:46:10See if he has anything on his end.
00:46:15Maybe they have some high-capacity explosives, something like that, to help us.
00:46:21I don't know.
00:46:21Anything's worth a try.
00:46:24Let's go.
00:46:28We've got a visual.
00:46:30Closing in on the primary NEL.
00:46:32It's a start.
00:46:33Although it remains to be seen what our ship can do, if anything.
00:46:36Well, there is some good news here.
00:46:38I've double-checked these coordinates, and it looks like we might have knocked it off by about 16 degrees.
00:46:42If we could do it by another 20, we'd be in the clear.
00:46:45Can you confirm that, Jane?
00:46:46Nina, we had a group of, what, 10 miners in here yesterday?
00:46:4912.
00:46:49All demolitions team.
00:46:50Great.
00:46:51Excellent.
00:46:52Go check and see if there are any Semtex C4 plastic explosives, any kind of propane canisters, anything.
00:47:00Negative.
00:47:01They took everything with them when we drove them off.
00:47:03Check again, Nina.
00:47:06There are no explosives on the cargo manifest.
00:47:12Listen.
00:47:13We don't have enough thrust to affect this thing with our ship.
00:47:16But the LiDAR there does indicate that it's began accelerating, and the last blast from the power station is slowed down by about 4%.
00:47:25That means it might have reversed its polarity in the last pulse.
00:47:30You're on the right track.
00:47:31If we can find a way to reduce another pulse, we can knock it farther off course.
00:47:36But the debris field is too thick to get a vector change simulation.
00:47:39Try a spectroscopic reading.
00:47:41Spectroscope is rendering a clear horizon line.
00:47:47Nina.
00:47:48We are 900 miles out from the NEO.
00:47:50I'll hit retrograde disasters at 500.
00:47:53Good.
00:47:54Try and get a hold of Steve and Amanda at the Mojave Observatory.
00:47:56See if they can help us with this.
00:48:00Luna 5 to Steve and Amanda Sawyer.
00:48:03Come in, Sawyer team.
00:48:05Luna 5 to Steve and Amanda Sawyer.
00:48:07Nothing.
00:48:10Dammit.
00:48:11Logan, we need a course of action here.
00:48:12I know that.
00:48:14And we'll come up with one.
00:48:15But for now, just keep heading toward the primary NEO.
00:48:26It's heavy, everybody.
00:48:31Logan, we're getting a signal from NASA's DC line.
00:48:33This is Captain Logan Sawyer.
00:48:43Come in.
00:48:44Logan Sawyer.
00:48:45General Madden at the Pentagon.
00:48:47General.
00:48:49We are standing by, ready and willing to do whatever is necessary, General.
00:48:54Your brother relayed a message about creating an EMP using the LiDAR on your ship.
00:48:58The LiDAR?
00:48:59Because it's a light-generated pulse along an optical cable and not an electrical conduit.
00:49:05General, that...
00:49:06That would involve some serious risk to both the spaceship and my crew, sir.
00:49:12We are within 500 miles of the primary NEO.
00:49:15Take it out now, Captain Sawyer.
00:49:18Do it now.
00:49:19Before the imminent strike.
00:49:22General.
00:49:24We lost his transmission.
00:49:25Yeah.
00:49:27We're too close to the meteoroid now.
00:49:29It's blocking the signal.
00:49:30Jing, how many kilowatts do we have available?
00:49:3370.
00:49:34Okay.
00:49:36Direct all 70 kilowatts toward the optical antenna.
00:49:40Logan, are you sure you want to do that?
00:49:42It's not a direct conductor.
00:49:44It will feed back and blow us up.
00:49:46It will blow us up.
00:49:47Surface isn't conductive, but the mirrors are.
00:49:49Right, Nina?
00:49:50He's right.
00:49:50The mirror polished fullerite.
00:49:52They're superconductive.
00:49:53We should be okay.
00:49:54Let's do it.
00:50:01Retrograde to stop.
00:50:0213%.
00:50:03You know there's a chance this will still blow us up.
00:50:06True.
00:50:06But I don't want to live knowing I let everyone on Earth die.
00:50:11We're making a lot of tough choices here.
00:50:13But some are better than others.
00:50:15Come on.
00:50:16Strap in.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:18Strap in.
00:50:20Power's wrapping up.
00:50:21I never thought I'd run the max on a 70 kilowatt circuit without anywhere to escape.
00:50:27I didn't either.
00:50:28But we do what we have to do.
00:50:31Shield your eyes.
00:50:32The light from the lidar could blind you.
00:50:34On my count.
00:50:35In five.
00:50:37Four.
00:50:38We are at 110%.
00:50:39Three.
00:50:40120.
00:50:42Two.
00:50:42125.
00:50:43Five.
00:50:44Step in back, Nita.
00:50:45Let us go.
00:51:00Something's happening with the Nio.
00:51:01I've got a visual on the Nio and a craft nearby.
00:51:13Looks like there's been an electrical arc and an explosion.
00:51:18Steve?
00:51:20I think it's Luna 5.
00:51:22You're telling me Logan fired an electrical pulse?
00:51:24I mean, that was our plan B.
00:51:30I don't know if it's worked, but...
00:51:33I mean, looks like he was thinking what we were thinking.
00:51:37No, that...
00:51:39That'll lead back to the ship.
00:51:44We have to send a rescue detail.
00:51:46After three EMPs in a row, that's gonna take days.
00:51:49I understand that, but I have to do something.
00:51:51We keep moving forward, and we stop this thing.
00:51:56Come on.
00:51:58Come on!
00:52:03Let's go.
00:52:21Let's go.
00:52:37Oh, our entire system is toast.
00:53:02We might as well be in a shipping container.
00:53:04Oh, we have no air filtration now.
00:53:08We'll run out of oxygen before the meteoroid even hits.
00:53:12My last reading on oxygen was about 50%.
00:53:16Captain, we need a rescue detail.
00:53:19It will take us hours to repair this.
00:53:34There's something colliding with the hull.
00:53:48Meteorites?
00:53:49Meteorites would be piercing the hull.
00:53:52What's the hull?
00:53:56A satellite.
00:53:58A heliostat just drifted by and attached itself to the hull.
00:54:02The earthquakes are getting worse and more frequent the closer the meteoroid gets.
00:54:21We have to get a touch with Logan.
00:54:23Steven, we already...
00:54:25Just hear me out.
00:54:27Assuming that his ship survived, he's the key to all of this.
00:54:31He's still close enough to the meteoroid.
00:54:45He's the only one.
00:54:47Okay, well, if we can get one of these radios up to the ridgeline, we may be able to break through.
00:54:55I don't know.
00:54:57If we can't get a full signal, that doesn't mean anything.
00:55:01Okay, but we can still do Morse code.
00:55:06We can keep moving and we can keep trying as we move.
00:55:10We send Morse code through the comms?
00:55:14Yeah.
00:55:16I mean, if one of us gets injured, then the other one just keeps trying to direct the meteorite.
00:55:21Amanda, come on.
00:55:22I know.
00:55:24You don't know Morse code.
00:55:25Here, quick.
00:55:27Here.
00:55:31Breathe.
00:55:32Breathe.
00:55:33Breathe.
00:55:38Okay.
00:55:43What is that?
00:55:44Logan's name, okay?
00:55:46Watch.
00:55:51In case you're the only one left, you need to know this.
00:55:55Okay.
00:55:57Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that.
00:56:00Yeah.
00:56:01Come on.
00:56:02Come on.
00:56:04Let's go.
00:56:04Let's get up here.
00:56:05Okay.
00:56:05Okay.
00:56:10Oh my God.
00:56:11I got it.
00:56:11I got it.
00:56:17Nina, see if you can tap into at least enough reserve power to get something going to the comms.
00:56:22Even if we get the ship to start again, the satellites will eventually breach the hull.
00:56:31It's work.
00:56:40Hey, that's Morris.
00:56:41Is it the observatory?
00:56:44It's Steve and Amanda.
00:56:45They'll ask me if we can restart the ship.
00:56:48No.
00:56:49Tell them.
00:56:50We're lucky to be alive.
00:56:51The ship is dead.
00:56:52And ask them why heliostat satellites are attaching themselves to the ship.
00:56:57You okay?
00:57:01Yeah.
00:57:02Okay.
00:57:03Let me try.
00:57:04Let me try.
00:57:05Keep your mask on.
00:57:16He's alive.
00:57:17The ship's dead.
00:57:24Satellites keep sticking to them.
00:57:26What?
00:57:26He said they've lost all power in the ship.
00:57:31It's completely dead.
00:57:32But heliostat satellites keep sticking to the ship.
00:57:36Well, my company deployed 80% of those heliostats into orbit.
00:57:42If they're striking the ship.
00:57:43That means it's magnetized.
00:57:44Yeah.
00:57:47The satellites too.
00:57:49And if they're magnetized, it means they share the same polarity.
00:57:52And if they share the same polarity, then that means the heliostat mirrors will be
00:57:57pointing in the same direction.
00:57:59The whole ship will act as a massive mirror in space.
00:58:02Logan can reflect the sun's rays toward the meteoroid and the concentrated light could destroy it.
00:58:07We can adjust his rate of descent by 45 degrees between the earth and sun.
00:58:16Okay.
00:58:17I'll tell him to slow his descent by any means necessary.
00:58:20And let those babies stick to the ship.
00:58:35I got you. I got you.
00:58:42You okay? You okay?
00:58:44Yes.
00:58:44Okay.
00:58:50Amanda says the satellites are polarized.
00:59:05Yeah.
00:59:06They're all facing the same direction.
00:59:08Logan, she's right.
00:59:09Their polarity and ours are the same.
00:59:11Nina, pull the manual air evacuate around the stern of the ship.
00:59:20The wall is open.
00:59:33That's half of the air, but we're slowing down.
00:59:36Morse code.
00:59:40She's saying we should redirect the satellites manually?
00:59:44Yeah, that's what we're doing.
00:59:46Because the satellites don't have any power, we're using the last of the air and the ship
00:59:51to turn the ship and direct the satellites at the meteoroid.
00:59:54I'm keying a response, letting them know we have the satellites and the ability to aim them.
01:00:02But how will that stop the meteoroid?
01:00:05Because each one of those mirrors has the ability to focus thousands of degrees of heat.
01:00:10The combined energy will create an explosion on the meteorite surface.
01:00:15So it will either push it, of course, or blow it apart.
01:00:18That's right.
01:00:29All right.
01:00:30We're almost lined up.
01:00:32Heat reading at 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
01:00:35Logan, the ambient heat from the satellites is giving us reading higher than the re-entry.
01:00:39Stay the course.
01:00:44We're three degrees off.
01:00:48We're gonna hit Earth.
01:00:49Captain, the beam is at least as hot as an X-ray laser.
01:00:58Secretary, our planetary team...
01:01:01We will end the threat, Secretary, but not without authorization from the President of the United States.
01:01:08I understand the UN's eagerness to act, that accuracy is just as important as speed.
01:01:14Wait.
01:01:16You're actually going to hack the U.S.'s cyber assets to prevent us from acting independently?
01:01:24Yeah, the terms are clear, Secretary General.
01:01:26Thank you for your candor.
01:01:29Give me the CIA Director, Code Theta.
01:01:31Request full CIA hack and look at digital standby to breach the UN Data Cloud Firewall on my orders.
01:01:37Code name Killswitch.
01:01:40Contact POTUS on a secure line and tell her I'm attempting to delay a global nuclear strike.
01:01:46Sawyer team, the concentrated light beam has destroyed the monument and burned the land outside of Rapid City, South Dakota.
01:01:53Initial reports suggest there are no fatalities, minor injuries and smoke inhalation.
01:01:57They are evacuating the area.
01:02:06Groundfall estimates show major impacts in Madrid, most of the eastern seaboard, Mexico City, and Tokyo.
01:02:13The bulk of the debris field is entering the atmosphere and impacting with a wide range.
01:02:19Fatalities are in the hundreds of thousands.
01:02:21Fatalities are in the hundreds of thousands.
01:02:23Come on.
01:02:30Okay, we should be 100% course corrected now. Let's try again.
01:02:51Wait a minute.
01:03:04The pieces are coming back to the other.
01:03:06What is it?
01:03:07What is it?
01:03:08What is it?
01:03:10What is it?
01:03:12What is it?
01:03:14What is it?
01:03:16What is it?
01:03:25Yes.
01:03:25He made contact.
01:03:28The particles, they're being pulled back toward the core.
01:03:33And with the surrounding rocks, it's going to make the meteoroid twice the size.
01:03:36Yeah.
01:03:38They're being induced into a state of reaction.
01:03:39I, I, I thought neos were held together by gravity and friction.
01:03:46Some are.
01:03:48But something like cobalt, it can be ionized like water.
01:03:54Let me show you.
01:03:55It's called van der Waals force, okay?
01:04:07So, these rocks are the molecules making up the magnetic polarity of the meteoroid.
01:04:12If you super heat them, like Logan just did, the meteoroid breaks apart.
01:04:17But it's still subject to the freezing temperatures in space, okay?
01:04:23And then in the expansion and contraction, the, the molecules float free and, and align their charge.
01:04:29We're, we're in the state of emergency level five right now.
01:04:34They've already initiated the international nuclear strike.
01:04:39We have to get to the power station and take cover right away.
01:04:43Steve, listen to me.
01:04:45If there is anything that you want to say to Logan, you need to say it now.
01:04:55Come on.
01:04:56I'll try more, sir.
01:04:59What do you want me to say?
01:05:00Just, just, just say, Logan, are you okay?
01:05:08I'll never forgive myself if he doesn't make it out of this.
01:05:11It's not your fault.
01:05:15He's up there because of me.
01:05:19No, I know Logan.
01:05:22Logan doesn't do anything he doesn't want to do.
01:05:25He's up there because that's where he wanted to be.
01:05:27He's up there because I put him there.
01:05:29Stop it.
01:05:31You gave him an opportunity.
01:05:33He got to go up there.
01:05:34He got to live his dream.
01:05:35Besides, in case you haven't noticed, it's not exactly safe back on Earth either.
01:05:40He's probably equally as worried about you.
01:05:42That's Morse.
01:05:54My brother.
01:05:59I'm here.
01:06:00I'm okay.
01:06:01I'm here.
01:06:05We're okay.
01:06:08We have full signal from Mojave.
01:06:09We have full signal from Mojave.
01:06:13Yes.
01:06:14Logan.
01:06:16We're here.
01:06:16We're here.
01:06:16We're here.
01:06:17How you doing, brother?
01:06:20Boy, are you a sound for sore ears.
01:06:22I'd love to get my crew home.
01:06:25But I know you still need our help up here or there won't be a home to get back to.
01:06:31So how do you feel about saving the world?
01:06:34I'd love to, but I'm afraid we're running on fumes up here.
01:06:41Okay, the beam's working, okay?
01:06:42We just need you to redirect it toward the meteoroid's path.
01:06:46The closer you can get your ship, the more intense the light beam hitting the meteoroid will be.
01:06:52We'll be with you every step of the way, man.
01:06:54All right.
01:06:57Nina?
01:07:02Set the thrusters for 50%.
01:07:13Wait.
01:07:14I'm getting an incoming signal.
01:07:16Put it through.
01:07:20General Madden.
01:07:21I did everything I could.
01:07:23The UN initiated a nuke strike.
01:07:25I repeat, imminent strike.
01:07:27General, there's still the issue of the nuclear fallout.
01:07:30I believe the nuke strike will carry the fallout past Earth and rot to the sun.
01:07:35General, please.
01:07:35You said you would do everything in your power to help us.
01:07:38Please.
01:07:39I know this is difficult.
01:07:41The countdown's already begun.
01:07:42Sorry, every single link is knocked off course and detonating prematurely.
01:07:58I kept telling them this was a risk.
01:08:00I did my best to hold off the nuclear strike, but there was too much international pressure to initiate the launch.
01:08:06I'm looking at it right here.
01:08:07The only good news is that by not hitting the primary neo, most of the fallout is dissipating into space.
01:08:11But the meteorite strike is imminent.
01:08:14I repeat, strike is imminent.
01:08:16Seek shelter if you can.
01:08:17Well, we have to find a way to warn Logan before we do anything else.
01:08:20The nuclear radiation is going to make it impossible to communicate by radio.
01:08:27There's all the power planets half a mile from here.
01:08:30We can go.
01:08:31Let's go.
01:08:31Let's go.
01:08:37Logan, the guy you're counting the ship just spiked by 50 rank ends.
01:08:40It's too late.
01:08:41They tried to nuke the meteoroid, but it didn't work.
01:08:42Brace!
01:09:12It's too late.
01:09:13So, what could the world do?
01:09:15It's too late.
01:09:15Let's go.
01:09:18Woo!
01:09:19Let's go.
01:09:49Can't freeze me.
01:09:56I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay.
01:10:09We're all nearing the red zone.
01:10:12We have to get to our suits now.
01:10:15Jane, slow down. Slow down.
01:10:17Conserve your O2. This is gonna take all of us to do this.
01:10:47I'm gonna go out and take care of the repairs.
01:10:49Do you have an F02?
01:10:51I'll be fine. I'll take care of the ship.
01:10:53If you guys get the air filtration system running in here, it'll buy us some time, okay?
01:10:57Logan, good luck.
01:10:59Is that what we're selling here today?
01:11:03Nothing ever scares you.
01:11:05I am terrified.
01:11:07I'll see you in a few.
01:11:15Logan, I can pull up your O2 reserves on my spaceship monitor.
01:11:19I don't plan on being out here long.
01:11:21What are you saying?
01:11:23I got live battery on one of these satellites.
01:11:27We must have a backup fuel cell.
01:11:29Once we blast that meteorite, we just might be able to jumpstart the ship.
01:11:35Captain, if I remember correctly, each satellite mirror generates 30 megawatts per square meter.
01:11:41We might have just enough of these satellites still here to create the directed heat that we need.
01:11:51If I can just get these things.
01:11:53Captain, you O2 reserves are now at 23%.
01:11:57I know how much air I have left, Nina.
01:12:01What's our ETA to impact?
01:12:03I'm sorry, Logan. The last blast took out the signal to our cloud database.
01:12:09That meteor.
01:12:13Must be almost inside Earth's atmosphere.
01:12:15If I can just get these adjusted to...
01:12:19Oh, no.
01:12:21Wait.
01:12:23Turn out the fuel cell.
01:12:24Oh, no!
01:12:31Nina!
01:12:36No! Nina!
01:12:37No!
01:12:38Keep the air for yourself.
01:12:46Oxygen level, 19%.
01:12:48That makes two of us.
01:12:51There you go.
01:12:52Even split.
01:12:5350-50.
01:12:54It would only last us about half an hour.
01:12:58Listen to me.
01:13:00I know Logan is our main pilot.
01:13:03But you have experience piloting a craft.
01:13:07No.
01:13:08I can only run the directional protocols.
01:13:12Monitor the emergency systems.
01:13:14We can't land without Logan.
01:13:15We can try and find a way, but...
01:13:19Oxygen at 14%.
01:13:21Yeah.
01:13:22It is at zero.
01:13:23Oxygen at 14%.
01:13:24Yeah.
01:13:25It is at zero.
01:13:30What's that?
01:13:32What's that?
01:13:33That's not Moscow.
01:13:34No.
01:13:35It's an automated alarm that sounds when an astronaut's biometrics goes dead.
01:13:39That's Nina.
01:13:40That's Jing.
01:13:41And I just lost a brother.
01:13:42What's that?
01:13:43What's that?
01:13:44That's not Moscow.
01:13:45No.
01:13:46It's an automated alarm that sounds when an astronaut's biometrics goes dead.
01:13:55Oh no.
01:13:58Oh no.
01:13:59We don't know what's known for.
01:14:02No.
01:14:03No.
01:14:04Yeah.
01:14:05Yeah.
01:14:07Whee-
01:14:08that's Nina.
01:14:09JING.
01:14:21GING.
01:14:21Dat's Nina.
01:14:23Amanda, Amanda, tell me you're okay, are you okay, please, here baby, just breathe, breathe, breathe, please, please.
01:14:53Is that Steve and Amanda?
01:15:08No, it's Logan.
01:15:14He's still alive.
01:15:17I'll contact the surface.
01:15:19I'll let Steve know he's still alive.
01:15:23Logan said we might be able to wire the ship to the power on one of the satellites and jumpstart the ship.
01:15:41There's no time to waste.
01:15:44We start the ship and we go and get him.
01:15:48We still have the meteoroid.
01:15:50We can't keep fighting without oxygen.
01:15:55Let's not give up the fight then.
01:15:56Please, you come back to me as well, I'll come back to you.
01:16:14Please.
01:16:15I can't be.
01:16:15I can't do anything without you, baby.
01:16:19Please, breathe.
01:16:22It's almost here.
01:16:32We can't stay here.
01:16:34Stay with me.
01:16:45Always stay with me.
01:16:46Okay, I'm a girl.
01:16:47Come on, I'll get you out of here.
01:16:48I swear to God, I'll get you out of here.
01:16:53How much time?
01:16:5415 minutes to impact.
01:17:03We gotta go.
01:17:04We gotta go.
01:17:08Even if we had another weapon, our EMP, our largest solar ray in the world, we couldn't stop it.
01:17:20Don't say that.
01:17:32Don't say that.
01:17:38Come on.
01:17:39Watch out, man.
01:17:40I need you to tell me where the communication hub is.
01:18:01It's in the central power junction.
01:18:07It's okay, it's okay.
01:18:08That's all I need to know.
01:18:09We're all right.
01:18:11We're all right.
01:18:12We're all right.
01:18:13We're all right.
01:18:14We're all right.
01:18:16Come on.
01:18:18Come on.
01:18:19Come on.
01:18:19Come on.
01:18:20Come on.
01:18:32If I can just get some power to the satellite,
01:18:37I can still aim beans, I can still aim beans, I can still aim beans at the NEO.
01:18:42The emergency overwrite switch to the solar panel array is over here.
01:18:47We can use that to move the panels.
01:18:49It's Logan.
01:18:56It's Logan.
01:18:56He's still alive.
01:18:58He says he's trying to break into the satellite to get to the solar to run his suit, but he's running low on oxygen.
01:19:13I never wanted any of this.
01:19:15I got tangled up in distractions when I should have been focusing on this.
01:19:21I got distracted.
01:19:23I got distracted.
01:19:36I'll start blowing gas.
01:19:37Wait.
01:19:45He's in.
01:19:46He's able to tap into reserve power.
01:19:49We have access to the most powerful solar array we can create right here.
01:20:00I-I-I know what you're thinking, Steve, but even with the meteoroid and terminal velocity, we couldn't generate enough heat to affect it.
01:20:12Listen to me.
01:20:13We have to go faster than terminal velocity if we can create some sort of power behind Logan's position.
01:20:26Step on the gas, with enough solar light from Earth and space, it should be able to generate enough heat to-to break the meteoroid into-into enough pieces that it won't fuse back together.
01:20:44You took my advice?
01:20:46You had the PDCO install solar sails?
01:20:50Yeah.
01:20:51Yeah.
01:20:52Well, we had to get to Mars.
01:20:56The outside solar sail is mirrored, so if he-if he turns it inside out-
01:21:01The reflection would be the size of a football field.
01:21:04The O2 levels at 7%.
01:21:09And if I can just aim this-
01:21:23At the front side out-
01:21:27Go.
01:21:29Logan must have set up that beam, hitting the meteoroid from space.
01:21:52If we turn the solar panel array, all in the same direction.
01:21:56Okay.
01:22:03These are just like the solar farms on the moon.
01:22:09You should be able to adjust the entire row with the server lever manually.
01:22:15Maybe with the both of us, we could at least adjust one row.
01:22:20The whole thing would take a whole day.
01:22:27Let's try.
01:22:32Pull.
01:22:37Come on.
01:22:42It's Logan.
01:23:04He's headed straight for the ship.
01:23:09Get to the decompression chamber.
01:23:12We'll open it manually.
01:23:17Shockway's on its way.
01:23:19That blast is going to take everything with it.
01:23:24No, it's okay.
01:23:25What are you talking about?
01:23:27Get down, get down.
01:23:27Ah!
01:23:40See?
01:23:42Not everything.
01:23:48Are you okay?
01:23:52It cleared the planet and the fallout.
01:23:58We...
01:23:58We did it?
01:24:03Yeah.
01:24:05Yeah.
01:24:05Yeah.
01:24:13Steve!
01:24:14Steve, can you hear me?
01:24:16Steve, it's Logan.
01:24:18Can you hear me?
01:24:19Can you hear me?
01:24:21Steve!
01:24:21Steve, come in.
01:24:23Copy.
01:24:23Logan.
01:24:25Steve.
01:24:26If you just saw that, then you know the coast is clear.
01:24:35You've got to be worried there for a little bit, brother.
01:24:39Wait, how did you get full power?
01:24:41No, don't you worry about me and little brother.
01:24:45Jane and Nina here helped me snag one of those solar sails from one of those rogue satellites that were attached to the ship.
01:24:52They managed to wire up just enough of these solar panels to fire up the ship while I was flailing around in space.
01:25:00Air filtration is running full blast.
01:25:03Blast?
01:25:04We put heat balance from the satellites to reinforce the hull for reentry.
01:25:08I told you sometimes you have to go full throttle.
01:25:15I'll show you full throttle.
01:25:21Hey!
01:25:23Hey!
01:25:25Hey, guys!
01:25:27Steve!
01:25:29Amanda!
01:25:29Amanda!
01:25:30I couldn't stay underground knowing that you two were out here saving Earth.
01:25:36I saw the explosion!
01:25:38You did it.
01:25:41Yeah.
01:25:42Yeah.
01:25:43No, you did it.
01:25:45You know what I'm in the mood for?
01:25:47What?
01:25:48One of those, uh, those Romeos.
01:25:51Prime cut birds.
01:25:54You got it.
01:25:57You got it.
01:26:02Gary.
01:26:03Gary.
01:26:05Steve Sawyer.
01:26:06It's Madden.
01:26:08Hello, General.
01:26:11You've shown skill and determination.
01:26:14You've shown willingness to confront difficult choices and to communicate them.
01:26:19You've shown intelligence and experience.
01:26:21And above all, you've shown true leadership.
01:26:23Because you took full responsibility even when you knew it wasn't your fault and you brought
01:26:27your team together.
01:26:29Also made a full report describing the recklessness of Taurus Mining Corporation and your attempt
01:26:32to get them to comply with safety protocols.
01:26:35But please know, none of this was your fault.
01:26:38And I consider it an honor to be counted amongst your friends.
01:26:51You heard the man, Steve.
01:26:54You better fire up that grill.
01:26:55You're right.
01:26:59Let's go.
01:27:00Let's go.
