Leaving behind an Earth ravaged by climate change and a bioengineered disease, Dr. Daniel Radu, captain of the Space Ark Mayflower, and his crew believed they finally found a place they could call home: Cepheus, a planet with an advanced indigenous population, warm tropical oceans, and two sunsets every night in the lavender sky.
