The film opens with a man in a medical containment suit running through the forest, chased by a bloodied man who screams. The pursuer falls, and as the scene lingers, the bloodied man clutches his head before the back of his skull explodes.
Forty hours earlier, in the same woods, Brooke Marguerite Sundberg goes for a jog. She is joined by local deputy Max Michael Flores, and the two share a quiet moment that leads to an intimate encounter in the trees. Elsewhere, a small group of military personnel sets up a mobile missile launcher on a hill, tasked with shooting down an orbiting satellite. As the missile fires, the satellite is struck by a meteorite and explodes, and the meteorite continues on toward Earth.
