A looming asteroid threat forces Kerbal scientists to launch an urgent deep space mission.
In short: The Sentinel Project has identified an asteroid on a collision course with Kerbin. With 12,000 Kerbin days until impact, the Kerbal Space Program must launch a reconnaissance mission to analyze the object before deciding how to prevent a planetary catastrophe.
The survival of Kerbin depends on gathering precise data about the incoming asteroid. Scientists require exact orbital information and a detailed understanding of the object's physical characteristics to formulate an effective defense strategy.
This mission serves as the critical first step in the Sentinel Project's response. By rendezvousing with the asteroid, the program aims to mitigate the threat and avoid the consequences of a direct collision.
