Part 3/9:
At NASA, Helen reunites with her friend, Michael, who reveals the staggering news: a colossal object has appeared in Jupiter's orbit, hurtling toward Earth at an alarming 30,000 kilometers per second. The implications are catastrophic; if it collides with Earth, life as we know it will cease to exist. Struck by terror and urgency, the scientists prepare to confront the impending disaster. Helen, taking a moment to reassure her son about an impending storm, boards a NASA plane headed for a monumental observation.
