In 1873, the HMS Challenger departed on a pioneering research expedition that would go on to change our perception of life. They would discover life in the deep sea, at pressures far beyond those considered livable. And through sheer coincidence, Challenger is also the name of the spaceship that is about to make a similar discovery in space. The spaceship and it's crew, completely unaware of what they have stumbled upon, are about to shatter Humanity's pre-conceptions about the possibilities of extraterrestrial life. They are about to discover life in the cold, hostile, vacuum of space.
