Earth. At the moment, it is a planet that can only be seen from space, all inhabitants killed off in a foolish nuclear war between one another, leaving the planet soaked in deadly radiation. Only twelve space stations, orbiting the planet remain. As time went on, the space stations chose to band together and attach, forming the Ark, the only place humans could survive. More than 100 prisoners on the ship under the age of 18, convicted of multiple crimes, wait, knowing that their time is running short, for when they turn 18, they will be ejected into space, in an activity known as being "floated." Time is running out on the Ark, rations running short, and oxygen becoming scarce. The only hope is in 100 teenage prisoners who will be sent down to earth in a secret mission to find out if the earth is habitable again. When humans thought that making it to the moon was the biggest achievement, now we're trying to get back to Earth.
(Original concept belongs to Kass Morgan)
Earth. It was the final destination for the citizens of the Ark, 100 years after the nuclear bombs that wiped out human civilisation and swamped the planet with radiation.
But the Ark is dying. A fault in the system means that they won't last another three years without running out of oxygen.
Sent to the ground, 100 expendable delinquents were to see if it was survivable. It was a suicide mission. A death sentence.
But it was found that the ground wasn't consumed by radiation. Rather there was a different threat to those teenagers. A threat that was more ruthless and cunning. One that wanted war...
They know that they will have to stick together. That they will be tested by the Earth and the secrets that it hides.
And one girl, with secrets of her own, has enough determination to not only survive, but thrive.
