1871. Steven Dawes revels in learning. Already an avid scholar, his mind is endlessly intrigued by the new information and passionate discussions fostered at his university. But his future takes a sudden turn when a German lecturer announces a large asteroid is tracking to collide with Earth.
Fighting political resistance and the lack of long-range communication, Steven reaches out to fellow scientists in observatories around the globe. And as he wrestles with the complex celestial data they compile, the dedicated astronomer fears cataclysmic destruction is assured...
Can Steven overcome technological deficiencies and warring nations to save the planet from an apocalypse?
