In the twenty-third century, Earth's scientists finally unlock the
secret of faster than light travel, and humankind begins journeying
to the stars. Unfortunately, the travel comes with perilous risks.
While exploring the galaxy and looking for habitable worlds for
human colonization, the United Earth Space Force exploratory ship,
"Copernicus," is destroyed by an encounter with an unexpected
meteor storm as it orbits a newly discovered planet twelve light
years from Earth. Of the more than one hundred scientists and crew
members aboard, only a few escape to the surface of Planet Tau Ceti
g?one being Chris Elliott, a thirty-six-year-old xenobiologist who
now must struggle to help himself and the other survivors to stay
alive on an unfriendly, alien world. With dwindling resources and
no communication with Earth to coordinate a rescue, the group is
forced to battle hostile elements and creatures never before seen
by humans. Now only time will tell if any of them will live long
enough to see a rescue.
In this science fiction thriller, a young scientist leads the
charge as he and the remaining crew members attempt to survive on
an unwelcoming planet with nothing but ingenuity, perseverance, and
hope.
