In 2192, most humans have fled an uninhabitable Earth, forced to live in huge orbiting space stations.
Billionaire Devon Adair's eight-year-old son, Ulysses Adair, contracts a rare but fatal disease called The Syndrome, caused by the lack of an Earth-like environment. Desperate to save her son, Devon puts together an expedition to travel to an Earth-like planet, G889, in an attempt to find a cure for the illness.
More than 200 other "Syndrome families" intend to follow Adair's advance party, joining them on the planet 22 light-years away to form a colony called New Pacifica.
Twenty-two years later, the passengers and crew awaken to discover a harsh new world filled with constant struggle and mysterious aliens.
A bold new world awaits.
