Prologue: The year is 2147 and Earth is the cultural mecca of the galaxy. It was not that long ago that Earth accomplished the one task they had sought ever since man had touched foot on the moon: contact with an alien race. Soon after they were welcomed into the Alliance of seven planets and were on the fast track of popularity. Tourism boomed, as well as scientific curiosity. Scientists from every planet in the Alliance came to study Earth’s sun, the first yellow sun on Alliance record that had a planet that supported life. After a few years of study and research a group of scientists discovered that the sun was dying. Upon hearing this, Earth’s government began making plans to transplant their inhabitants. They began contacting the other members of the Alliance to find a suitable planet. To no avail, no one had a planet in their system to support so many people. It was determined that Earth would have to travel outside of known Alliance space to seek out a suitable new home before the sun took it’s last breath. Massive ships would need to be built while still others were exploring. Twelve ships were sent out to explore the uncharted regions. These are the adventures of one of the twelve, the Odyssey.
