The Tears of the Twins¸ a comet field of over 20 comets¸ light up the night sky of Prikas for a month every 4 years. The event is marked by a month-long celebration¸ with every Nalian taking part in the festivals that are a celebration of life.
For millennia¸ the Nalian's have believed it to be an unchanging constant in their lives¸ worth celebrating. But 3 years ago¸ their top scientists confirmed their worst fears¸ that it's not a constant. In fact¸ every year¸ the Tears are a little closer to Prikas when they pass. To their horror¸ every calculation they run shows that the next time the Tears of the Twins pass through the solar system¸ the comet field will strike Prikas¸ destroying all life on the planet.
Working right up to the last minute¸ they build the Perseverance¸ a Genetic Ark ship that holds the embryos and seeds of every species on the planet. Quickly uploading a hastily programmed¸ and mostly sane¸ A.I.¸ and putting 54 crewmembers in stasis¸ they launch their last¸ desperate hope to save their civilization!
Can a mentally unstable A.I. and 54 sleeping crewmembers navigate 150 lightyears of unknown space to reach salvation?
