The Escape
13 April 2036. It is believed by most scientists as Earth’s dooms day. Due to a massive asteroid (9942 Apophis) crash which will kill millions or even wipe out almost every living creature on this green planet, same as what had happened during the period with the dinosaurs.
It was a sultry afternoon as the ardent sun shone relentlessly on every thing on Earth. Earth is now heated up with an average of forty degrees Celsius due to the greenhouse effect created by the unity of man-kind and the scorching Sun. Ice at both seeking poles are melting at breakneck speed rising the sea level every minute.
Rick looked at the calendar with affright. It is the 5April 2036! Even though scientists have created several methods to stop the catastrophe, sometimes, Science cannot be trusted to the fullest. This is the first attempt the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the United Nations (UN) are going to stop this holocaust. Newspaper and the television have been reporting for everyone to go to bomb shelters.
Down on the streets, people were carrying all the supplies they needed to get through this disastrous event. All the vehicles were left on the streets deserted; derelict boats were left at the harbours; planes and train were left untouched at stations and airports.
10April 2036, Rick and his family were all packed up ready to go to the shelter. They were all dispiriting as they have to live in the overcrowding bomb shelters.
At NASA, that started the countdown for the Apollo 89 to Apollo 95 to go to incoming 9942 Apophis.
“Five! … … Four! … … Three! ... … Two! … … One! … … Take off!” and the space shutters took off to the sky.
At the bomb shelter, there is a live television that broadcast the events happening on the journey to 9942 Apophis from cameras installed in the shutters.
The shutters manoeuvre though the fallen rocks of the 9942 Apophis. Everyone in the shelter was cats on hot bricks, giving the anxious looks watching at the television attentively. The 9942 Apophis is moving at 30.728 kilometres per second.
Scientist have tried the “Nudge” theory of moving the asteroid off to another path, not hitting Earth but had failed. So, now they are planning to use nuclear bomb to change its direction.
13April 2036, 5.06p.m. A second sun lights up in the sky of Beijing, within seconds that ‘sun’, with a length of three hundred metres, crushed into the city causing a massive explosion that is one hundred thousand times the power of Hiroshima Nuclear bomb.
A minute later, another binding ball of fire incinerates everything in its path and twenty kilometres radius of the impact point. Heat created by that impact gave every people out of the bomb shelters, within a hundred kilometres, a third degree burn. Every thing that stands in the path within fifty kilometres were destroyed. The skies started raining rocks. Sand and dust choked the skies after the impact.
People in the bomb shelters started to doubt that they could live. During the journey, all the Apollo were destroyed except for one. The Apollo 93.
Just then, they fired the five nuclear bombs to the side of the 9942 Apophis and manage to change its path heading to an unknown.
“Yeah!” the people cheered. We all gave a sign of relief. Worst have yet to come. The cost needed to clear what the raging 9942 Apophis did was huge and even Bill Gates could not pay for that amount.
However, even with the commotion on this repairing matter, Rick then said, “That’s what I call by the World escaping from death.”
