The Earth is dying - the planet no longer viable to support human life. In response, NASA has sent the Sitara into space to locate a habitable planet and preserve the human race. A thousand years later, Nova and five others wake aboard the ship - but something has gone terribly wrong. Of the thousand people sent on the voyage, only 50 remain, and Nova and her companions have been terribly deceived. NASA's mission was not one of peace, but of conquest. A new planet is in danger and their ship is the threat. Together, Nova and her companions can figure out a way to save the planet - but will it cost them the future of the human race?
