The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on everyone. Finally, the UN leaders began to voice their concerns. "Do we have any spacecraft capable of undertaking this mission? We used almost every nuclear bomb we had for the Messiah."
The Chinese president spoke up, "We have a spaceship ready for our Mars mission. It is at our space station near the Himalayas. I can offer it for this mission." Russia's representative followed, "We have a couple of nuclear weapons stored for global peacekeeping.
We can contribute them to the effort." The US president added, "We have one nuclear bomb stored safely beneath the White House for protection. I will allocate it for this mission." With three nuclear bombs and a spaceship at their disposal, the room's atmosphere shifted from despair to a fragile hope.
Henry nodded; his gratitude evident. "Thank you for your support, leaders. We will start the process immediately. Science will guide us to save humanity." As the world watched and waited, the leaders and scientists worked against the clock, determined to give humanity one last chance.
In the days that followed, amidst the frenzied preparations and meticulous calculations, hope took root once more. Engineers repurposed the Martian-bound spacecraft, retrofitting it with the necessary payload for a lunar mission unlike any before. Meanwhile, nuclear experts meticulously planned the deployment of the warheads, strategizing how best to utilize their explosive power to alter the course of Asteroid Risca.
As the countdown to the asteroid's fateful rendezvous with the moon approached, the world held its breath. The efforts of nations, the expertise of scientists, and the collective will of humanity converged in a singular pursuit—a fragile hope poised against the vastness of space and the specter of extinction.
In this pivotal moment, as the Earth itself seemed to pause in anticipation, one truth remained resolute: against all odds, humanity would not yield. They would fight, they would strive, and they would dare to believe that in the darkest of hours, the light of hope could still illuminate a path to survival—a path where resilience and unity would forge a new chapter in the history of humankind
