Quinn Angstrom
This premise is buck wild
Quinn Angstrom
It's the future
Quinn Angstrom
the Sun is suddenly degenerating and expanding
Quinn Angstrom
it will consume the Earth in 100 years and destroy the solar system in 300
Quinn Angstrom
so humanity's plan
Quinn Angstrom
is to build 10,000 11-km-tall Earth Engines
Quinn Angstrom
and push the planet out of the solar system
Quinn Angstrom
to a new solar system
Quinn Angstrom
under each earth engine is an underground city
Quinn Angstrom
which are the only places where humans will be able to live for the next 2500 years
Quinn Angstrom
that and the Earth Navigation Space Station, 100,000 km ahead of the planet on its journey
Quinn Angstrom
17 years later
Quinn Angstrom
people are learning about the seasons in Beijing-3
lily!
okay, this seems pretty wicked actually
Quinn Angstrom
it's not netfloox
Quinn Angstrom
on*
Quinn Angstrom
it's on netfloox
Princess Emily
thank God it's on netfloox for us to watch
Quinn Angstrom
our plucky hero wants to use thermal suits to escape to another city
Quinn Angstrom
planning a slingshot past jupiter
Quinn Angstrom
-84C on the surface
Quinn Angstrom
-119F
Quinn Angstrom
today we enter jupiter's orbit
Quinn Angstrom
Dad works on the space station, but is returning to Earth tomorrow
Quinn Angstrom
weird hearing Chinese spoken with a Russian accent
Quinn Angstrom
Jupiter gravitational spike detected
Quinn Angstrom
Disaster warning protocols activated
Quinn Angstrom
Earth is now on a collision course with Jupiter
Quinn Angstrom
oops, the hero is in prison
Quinn Angstrom
Liu Qi is the brother
Quinn Angstrom
Duoduo is the sister
Quinn Angstrom
Beijing-3 is collapsing
Quinn Angstrom
Earth engine system failing
Quinn Angstrom
1112 facilities
Quinn Angstrom
3400 facilities
Quinn Angstrom
things have gotten real bad real fast
Quinn Angstrom
37 hours to planetary collision
Quinn Angstrom
The 4500 disabled engines must be reactivated within 36 hours or 3.5 billion people will die
Quinn Angstrom
space station crew are all being put into hibernation so they can dedicate 100% of power to the rescue mission
Quinn Angstrom
The Wandering Earth Project has failed.
Quinn Angstrom
The Earth has missed its last chance of escape
Quinn Angstrom
now instigating the Helios Project
Quinn Angstrom
300,000 human embryos and DNA maps of all Earth species are stored o the navigation station
Quinn Angstrom
to revive the human race on a new planet
Quinn Angstrom
Earth will fall into jupiter in 7 days
Quinn Angstrom
Jupiter's gravitational pull has siphoned massive amounts of hydrogen off of Earth's atmosphere
Quinn Angstrom
and that atmospheric strand.......
Quinn Angstrom
is FLAMMABLE
Quinn Angstrom
IT'S TIME TO SET JUPITER ON FIRE
Princess Emily
whAT
Quinn Angstrom
They're going to put all the power in the main earth engine into one of its seven nozzles
Quinn Angstrom
to fire a 70.000 km beam of plasma at Jupiter
Quinn Angstrom
which will ignite the atmospheric drain
Quinn Angstrom
sending a shockwave back to earth
Quinn Angstrom
to knock it back on course
Princess Emily
holy shit
Quinn Angstrom
this movie is amazing
Quinn Angstrom
someone looked at all the math involved in the logistics of this plot
Quinn Angstrom
threw it in the garbage
Niamh Vibes
everything about this rules
Quinn Angstrom
and went 'yo what will be the SICKEST SHIT'
EsperBot
holy shit
Quinn Angstrom
Israeli scientists proposed this plan seven hours ago
Quinn Angstrom
the probability of success is zero
Quinn Angstrom
all remaining rescue personnel within range of the final engine
Quinn Angstrom
must choose to spend their last few days with their family
Quinn Angstrom
or throw that chance away to aid in a mission that has no hope of success
Quinn Angstrom
the beam is still 5000km short
Quinn Angstrom
three stations fired, none of them made it far enough
Quinn Angstrom
but
Quinn Angstrom
the earth navigation station has 300,000 tons of fuel
Quinn Angstrom
if they drive it into the beam, it will extend it far enough
Quinn Angstrom
but the AI that runs the station won't allow this action because it endangers the helios project
Quinn Angstrom
but Liu's dad used bootleg vodka to set the AI core on fire
Quinn Angstrom
so that he can suicide dive into the beam and save the planet
Quinn Angstrom
oh okay he detached the hibernation units to send them back to earth
Quinn Angstrom
so he's the only one who will die in the station
Quinn Angstrom
his own fault for promising to see his family again at the pre-timeskip part of a disaster movie
Quinn Angstrom
this makes NO sense and it's AMAZING
Quinn Angstrom
jupiter is on fire
Quinn Angstrom
the shockwave hits in 7 minutes
Quinn Angstrom
EARTH SURVIVED
