The year is 2085, and a fleet of interstellar ships hurtles toward a solar system that is hoped will offer a new home for humanity. Setting up a wormhole gate on one of Epsilon Eridani's planets would provide an escape for the billions left on an overpopulated and resource-poor Earth.The fleet recently received what is assumed to be its last communication from the United Nations Stellar Commission. The brief message read simply, "You're on your own," which the fleet takes to mean that they just passed out of Earth's communication range.But they are wrong. Back home, a disaster unparalleled in Earth's history now threatens humanity's very survival. The population is in free fall, governments have collapsed, and an overwhelming sense of apathy grips the planet. Unless the situation improves-and soon-the wormhole gate will open to an Earth without humans.Humanity's hopes are now fully in the hands of the ninety thousand star-flung individuals heading through deep space on fragile ships-while back on Earth, a powerful force awakens.Humanity has leaped into the stars, but will this be our future-or a last desperate act before extinction?

After a successful space mission on a fleet of Star Ships, Earth''s best and brightest minds return to find their planet ravaged by a viral catastrophe. Without leadership or direction, the loosely reorganized United Nations Stellar Commission (UNSC) sits in a state of stagnation. The newly appointed commissioners of the UNSC must decide whether or not to risk the four functional Star Ships that remain in the hope of discovering another inhabitable planet. What they don''t realize is that there are other forces at work, gathering power on Earth and, possibly, in the skies. When the travelers encounter a powerful being who cannot recall his past, they discover that helping each other might open just the right doors for everyone. Working as a team, they make a discovery that could change the future of mankind-if they can make it out alive.
