AN ASTEROID HAS CRASHED INTO THE MOON, AND ITS FRAGMENTS ARE THREATENING TO DESTROY LIFE AS WE KNOW IT.
The only hope for mankind is Project Orpheus, an unprecedented initiative on the part of the allied governments to enable human life to continue on Kepler-442b, a planet over a thousand light years from Earth.
Two spaceships are under construction, which will leave for that remote solar system with a specialized crew to terraform the planet and make it habitable. Steven Rhodes, the director of Project Orpheus, will travel in the first of them. His daughter Emily, a specialist technician in Artificial Intelligence, will follow on the second ship, five years later.
However, the journey will be full of dangers which the ship's crew will have to confront.
WILL EMILY BE ABLE TO JOIN HER FATHER AND BEGIN A NEW LIFE AT THE OTHER END OF THE UNIVERSE? WILL MANKIND BE GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE FAR AWAY FROM THE EARTH?
