Ariadne is one of four explores on her ship that go in and out of hibernation as they explore new worlds. They cope with the long journey and different plants with a combo of hibernation and tech that modifies them to work better in their new environment. But what they don’t handle as well is the changes back home, so they agree as a crew to stop watching the news/history updates while they are exploring amazing worlds each with something wonderful to see. Each world gives them new challenges and they don’t notice in the beginning that the updates have stopped coming. Now the crew must decide what do next.
