[[ | [[D'askto]] who had managed to stow away aboard the sphere, was advised by [[Adrene]], the Neural imprint of D'askto installed within the sphere, of the presence of the away team. When he discovered that they were headed for the central control chamber, where critical equipment was located. | ||
[[D'askto]], realizing that any damage to the Temporal Flux capacitor located in that chamber could cause a complete breakdown and implosion of the space-time continuum, set out to warn the potential combatants that they must not damage the equipment inside the compartment for fear of destroying the entire universe in which they all existed. | |||
It was here, that | It was here, that Volus revealed two Drones, the parents of Ben Soma, in an attempt to demoralize Soma and the others. His ploy was to stall long enough that no actions made by the assault team could be effective. | ||
During this period, | During this period, he declared that already the sphere had crossed a point of no return, whereby even it's destruction would not prevent catastrophic damage to the [[Earth]] or it's inhabitants in the form of an [[Chicxulub Crater|Extinction Level Impact Event]]. | ||

The Impact of the core of the [[Tkon Nanosphere]] struck the Earth approximately 58 minutes after the [[Borg Collective]] , led by [[Volus]] slipped into the [[Cretaceous Period]] of [[Earth|Earth's]] History. The combined efforts of both the [[USS Rosenante]] and the [[USS Boudicca]] could not destroy enough of the sphere for it's pieces to burn up upon re-entry into the atmosphere.

The Impact of the core of the [[Tkon Nanosphere]] struck the Earth approximately 58 minutes after the [[Borg Collective]] , led by [[Volus]] slipped into the [[Cretaceous Period]] of [[Earth|Earth's]] History. The combined efforts of both the [[USS Rosenante]] and the [[USS Boudicca]] could not destroy enough of the sphere for it's pieces to burn up upon re-entry into the atmosphere. As a result of this a sizable chunk of the sphere entered the planet's atmosphere and set of a chain reaction of events that devastated life on the planet. | |||
The first stage of the impact was the atmospheric re-entry. The impact with the ionosphere was seen to deform the entirety of the planet's atmosphere, compressing it on the side of the impact, while forcing a bulge in the opposing side of the globe. Such a tremendous and sudden shift of atmosphere would have caused a massive number of windstorms and mega storms to form spontaneously. As the object continued into the atmosphere, ignitable gases, combusted. These included oxygen, methane and other hydrocarbon derivatives. In addition to the windstorms, now a massive ring of fire spread across the planet, although it did not consume all available oxygen, but instead depleted it significantly. | The first stage of the impact was the atmospheric re-entry.

Trailing pieces of the device, known as secondary impactors, slammed into the planet at intervals and a few even managed to slam into the dark side of [[Luna]]. Some of the ejecta reached low orbit, traversed a sizable arc over the world before succumbing to its intense gravitational grip. All over the planet, sections and pieces of the debris slammed earthward, creating dozens of impact craters of various sizes, setting fire storms, and throwing incalculable amounts of iridium and other dust particles airborne. | Trailing pieces of the device, known as secondary impactors, slammed into the planet at intervals and a few even managed to slam into the dark side of [[Luna]].
