By 2028, the effects of climate change had reached catastrophic levels, and humanity had finally decided to take drastic measures. The world's top scientists and engineers came together to create the world's largest geoengineering project: "Project: SkyShield."
Project: SkyShield aimed to create a network of mirrors in orbit around the Earth, reflecting the sun's rays back into space and reversing the effects of global warming. Sounds simple, right?
The project was a massive success, but not in the way anyone expected. The mirrors, made of a new, super-dense material called "Solarium," began to malfunction and started reflecting not just sunlight, but also the world's collective consciousness. People began to see their deepest fears and desires reflected back at them, leading to widespread madness and societal collapse.
As the world descended into chaos, the mirrors continued to malfunction, reflecting the world's most embarrassing moments back at its inhabitants like a never-ending loop of awkward middle school dances. The project was deemed a failure, but its legacy lived on in the form of a generation of people who will never be able to look at themselves in the mirror again.
