Each superpower has a DEFCON system – an alert state that signifies how close they are to launching their nukes in response to perceived threat.
The DEFCON level climbs and falls as a result of your actions. If the DEFCON level reaches its peak while you’re on a mission, a countdown starts. If you don’t reach the base’s launch computer before the countdown ends, then BOOM… no more moon.
