September 13, 2124. Earth, though still habitable, is no longer the utopia it once was. Resources are running out, conflicts persist and humanity, in its eternal quest for expansion, is looking to the stars.
I’m Commander Thomas Darrel, in command of the flagship X837. Our mission: to find new habitable planets to ensure the survival of our species. At my side are 9,872 cryogenically dormant souls, scientists, engineers and civilians, all united by the hope of a better future.
X837 is a jewel of human technology, a marvel floating in the cosmos, capable of traveling unimaginable distances thanks to its latest-generation nuclear fusion engine. But even with this technological feat, our destination is 300 years away. We’re in search of a new Earth, a new Eden. And now, after three centuries of travel in the icy silence of space, we’re about to wake up.
