In the Earth's final days she had time to send only a single ship away from the coming apocalypse. Originally designed for a long range colonization plan, the Discovery had become humanity's only lifeboat. It held in cryogenic slumber 1200 of Earth's best minds and bodies and 200 augmented soldiers to provide security and protection on a new and possibly hostile world. With 120 crew and 100 robotic remotes to provide the muscle, as well as the various vehicles needed, it was hoped that this would be enough to start over and rebuild human civilization. It also held one very unique treasure, a prototype of the next generation of cybernetic augmentation. She was something special. When the asteroid impacted the doomed planet, her children were already well past Jupiter. Far enough away to to survive the cataclysm.
Not trusting to chance, wisdom dictated each of the crew, scientists and colonists would have a digital copy stored in case of disaster. It was hoped, in vain that they would never be needed.
The adventure begins...
