Collision Earth Plot Summary

What happens in Collision Earth from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 5-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

In the year 2029, the starship Nautilus is poised to make a daring landing on Mercury, carrying a small, skilled crew: Marshall Donnington, the steady-handed Commander; Pilot Lee Tahon, whose name remains unlinked here because the actor isn’t listed among the cast; and Victoria Preston, the capable Flight Engineer. As they execute their orbital insertion, a sudden and powerful solar flare erupts from the Sun, unleashing a magnetic onslaught that instantly begins to twist Mercury’s structure and threaten the mission. The ship manages to limp away from the worst of the danger at first, but the flare’s aftershocks cripple the Nautilus’ engines, leaving the vessel adrift amid a rapidly destabilizing environment.
