These asteroids also decimated New York soon thereafter. Then, NASA discovered t …hat there is an asteroid roughly the size of Texas heading towards the Earth, and when it does hit the Earth, the planet itself and all of its inhabitants will be obliterated, worse, the asteroid will hit the Earth in 18 days.

However, the project for the BP oil company is beset with technical difficulties to the point where the general operational superviso …r, Jimmy Harrell, and his Chief Electrical Engineer, Mike Williams, are concerned potentially dangerous trouble is brewing.
