  • Episode 1Killer Asteroid43 min

    65 Million Years ago, an asteroid impact caused a cascade of catastrophes that led to the downfall of the dinosaurs, but what would happen if the same size space rock struck near the same spot again? How would modern humans cope with a hailstorm of falling rocks and debris, mega tsunamis, out of control fires, blast-furnace temperatures, and a destroyed ozone layer? In the wake of worldwide destruction, who would survive...and who would perish?

  • Episode 2Black Hole50 min

    Human civilization is under attack from a catastrophic–but unseen–threat from space. A supermassive black hole is moving toward Earth at almost the speed of light. As this celestial killer approaches our planet, its enormous gravitational forces trigger earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis larger than any the world has ever seen.

  • Episode 3Rogue Planet50 min

    There are twice as many rogue planets as stars in the galaxy. So what might happen if a ringed planet the size of Neptune were on a collision course with Earth? Within a period of just four hours, as people flee in panic, the gravity from the rogue planet would tear apart the Moon, stir up supersonic winds, trigger every earthquake fault and volcano, and finally pull the Earth to pieces.

  • Episode 4Solar Storm50 min

    When Earth gets hit by a deadly Solar Storm--a massive chunk of the Sun--our planet's electrical system turns into a smoking ruin. How does modern civilization cope without power?

  • Episode 5Nuclear War50 min

    World War 3 breaks out and a nuclear nightmare becomes reality as thousands of hydrogen bombs destroy the world's greatest cities. A deadly fallout of ash and debris creates a Nuclear Winter, plunging the planet into a sudden Ice Age. Crops fail worldwide and mass starvation drives humanity to the brink of extinction.
