The year is 2144, and Earth has become polluted and has dangerously low levels of natural resources. The CES (Coalition for Earth's Survival) has deemed it necessary to find new sources for coal and oil, or even a location to colonize. With little time to spare, Earth sends you, Kevin Powers, with a team of researchers and miners, to explore the stars.

One day on the ship, the crew is relaxing and making bets on sporting events going on back on Earth. Suddenly, the ship hits a small asteroid. Ironically, the ship's resources are damaged, and it begins to run low on oil and fuel. You desperately try to steer the ship to a nearby planet, but realize that a fatal crash is inevitable. Just before hitting the planetary surface, you eject from the ship. 











Your crew is not so lucky.
