Earth is dying. Centuries of climate collapse and pollution have pushed humanity to the brink of extinction. In a final act of unity, the world’s nations come together to build The Ark—the first spacecraft capable of interstellar travel. Its mission: to find a new, habitable world where humanity can begin again.

You have been personally selected by Captain Alex Bertrand to join the Ark’s maiden voyage to Proxima Centauri. As a world-renowned astrobiologist, you carry a dual responsibility: to explore alien ecosystems and to serve as Earth's first envoy in the event of contact with intelligent life. This is more than a mission. It is a last chance.
