Six of Earth's finest young people, perfect in mind and body, have been trained from the cradle for one task - to brave the infinite dangers of space, to find new homes for Man.  But once alone in the pitiless universe, they are betrayed by their ship and plagued by space hazards: their voyage becomes a grim test of survival.  To survive they must tame their wild talents.  To survive, they must turn their training into skill, with no margin for error.  To survive, they must conquer their fears, longings and nightmares.  They must become a team.  They must learn how to love.
Or they die...
