The world was gearing up for its ultimate showdown. "It's life or death, with nothing in between," declared the Military General at the UN assembly. Military forces, encompassing air, navy, and ground units from across the globe, readied their arsenals and prepared to deploy missiles and weaponry for the imminent collision with Asteroid Risca.
Training sessions were underway across all departments to ensure that law and order prevailed. The news spread worldwide, broadcasting updates on the recent moon-nuking strategy and the military's mobilization efforts for the impact.
People were urged to remain calm and hopeful for the future of their children. "We hold onto hope that will reshape our future. Trust in us," the message resonated. People understood that this was humanity's last chance for survival.
They stayed close with loved ones, silently watching the news, united in their shared anxiety. Defense Head Henry had been sleepless for the past five days, stationed at NASA HQ, overseeing Earth's critical mission aptly named "Earth's Salvation."
Everyone desired a test run before the launch, but time was not on their side. The impact was predicted for Sunday, a mere seven days away. Scientists calculated the asteroid's trajectory and planned the spaceship launch for September 10th, Tuesday, at 4 PM. The spacecraft aimed to intercept the moon by 8 PM, with the team scheduled to detonate the payload precisely at 10 PM when Asteroid Risca would enter the moon's perimeter.
All preparations were in place for the plan. As the fateful day approached, the entire world watched the impending launch as their final plea to the divine. People of all faiths fervently prayed, imploring myriad gods to ensure the mission's success and deliver them from the looming catastrophe.
In the calm before the storm, humanity stood united, their hopes and prayers intertwined in a collective embrace of survival.
