What If the Moon Collided With Earth?

It's been 150 days since the Moon has been on a collision course toward Earth. As the Moon approaches, ocean tides rise, cities are flooded and destroyed, and volcanoes and earthquakes erupt worldwide. The Moon's gravitational pull grows stronger, causing havoc on our planet.
