You’re Eva Stratt, it’s 3 days before the launch. And a miscalculation in the astrophage caused an explosion in your labs that not only killed your 2 scientists for the voyage, but also the 2 pilots and the 2 fucking engineers.
You already have the replacement for the scientist, you had it since you discovered he was coma resistant.
But finding coma resistant people is way harder than it looks when the changes are 1 in 70’000 people.
Luckily, your team is able to find an engineer, an individual charged for an attack that killed 62 people years ago, which left him with only one arm, but apparently despise that he’s still one of the best choices.
The issue is the pilot. Oh and what’s that? Apparently Grace has a twin brother? Who not only this means he’s most likely shares the coma resistant gene, but also was one of the best stuntman ever, and yeah he got a pretty bad back hit but he’s still able to ride and pilot most crafts, is already well built and has plenty of experience in high stake situations?
Ok so you have a middle school teacher, his stunt-man brother an ex terrorist in a tin can 11.9 light years away. None of them will remember anything of course because all of them will be forced to go.
What could possibly go wrong?
