“One hour before impact. The missile entered sprint phase, pushing its stealth drive beyond cruising speed to evade any last-minute interception attempts. The engine plume shifted from a near-invisible cyan to a eye-searing blue.
Warheads detached from the central housing in layers, peeling away like wind-blown seeds. As one, they ignited short-burn solid-fuel chemical thrusters. A flock of bright-crimson flares began to circumnavigate MIZAR-V-A, entering temporary orbits in search of their pre-designated targets. The main body of the missile continued its course, correcting minor trajectory deviations as it speared in towards the largest settlement on the planet."
