You’ve signed on to the starship-ark New Dawn to travel some 54 million light years to the dwarf galaxy M60-UCD1 where you and five hundred others will found a colony. The mostly young (late teens and twenty-something) crew and colonists have volunteered to leave everything behind to travel through a wormhole to Planet E, orbiting the main sequence star G4-383. The journey will take ten years; no return is planned - those aboard New Dawn will populate and propagate the new colony.
But as New Dawn orbits Mars during final provisioning prior to launch, there are those in the Council of Ten, based on Earth, who want to cancel the mission, decommission and cannibalize New Dawn, and use the reclaimed resources to help relieve economic hardship throughout the solar system. As rumors fly, and members of the crew are being replaced by Council loyalists, those dedicated to the mission hatch a desperate plan:
Steal the starship!
