Nathan Palmer is a quiet, modest quintessential brilliant theoretical physicist and astronomer with his head in the clouds. He's different than most people, he's one the most intelligent persons in the entire world – a polymath. His IQ is way beyond Einstein, Hawking, mathematician Pythagoras, even Tesla. He has an eccentric and prickly personality, is fluent in 15 languages, a photographic memory and sleeps only four hours a night. He is forced one day to confront a danger he could never have imagined: he predicts a rogue one-mile wide asteroid will strike Earth within two weeks. Based on his wildest, most unimaginable scientific fears, he knows the unthinkable will happen and sets out on the most important – and perilous – mission of his career: to save humanity. So, begins a harrowing journey that takes Nathan Palmer flying from the Hawaiian Islands, Puerto Rico, Washington DC and Seattle, Washington. He encounters a beautiful woman, a former pro-wrestler, the President of the U.S., and a mysterious homeless person who is convinced he's a messenger from God. The more Palmer tries to convince the President that the large asteroid will strike Earth, the more dangerous his own landscape becomes. Turns out the President doesn't believe his prediction, has no intention of warning the nation and directs his Administration to suppress the information. Palmer decides to break the law, expose the conspiracy, and risk his career to warn the entire country. No one knows if they will survive the impact of the space object. Tensions arise. Panic erupts. Can Nathan Palmer and the woman he loves survive the impacts of the asteroid strike, volcanic eruptions and a mega tsunami – forces so indomitable that they threaten the entire world? Stuck in the end high on Mt. Olympus on the Island of Oahu, he finds himself and his friends cut off from the rest of the world, holed up in a cave. Can they work together as a team to survive without getting themselves killed…and live to tell their story for the history books?
