A hundred years into the future, technology has solved most of the world’s problems. But humanity is still unprepared for the massive asteroid hurtling toward the earth—with the potential to destroy all life. Captain Robert Singh, aboard the starship Goliath, may be the only person who can stop it—but not without the ultimate sacrifice.
A century into the future, technology has solved most of the problems that have plagued our time. However, a new problem is on the horizon-one greater than humanity has ever faced. A massive asteroid is racing toward the earth, and its impact could destroy all life on the planet.
Immediately after the asteroid-named "Kali" after the Hindu goddess of chaos and destruction-is discovered, the world's greatest scientists begin their search for a way to prevent disaster. In the meantime, Captain Robert Singh, aboard the starship Goliath, may be the only person who can stop the asteroid. But this heroic role may demand the ultimate sacrifice.
