Story

As a member of a new scientific expedition, you arrive on the planet Tauris b hoping for groundbreaking discoveries. Instead of answers, you find chaos. The previous colonists – without warning – attack your group. You barely escape with your life. Fleeing into orbit brings no relief. While drifting around the planet, you begin to uncover that the attack was not random. Older researchers are desperately trying to conceal a dark truth about the destruction of a civilization that once inhabited Tauris b. You orbit the planet alone, repairing damaged satellites and exploring forgotten asteroids. Each new fragment of information brings you closer to the truth – and to a decision that cannot be undone. Warn humanity? Transmit a signal from the mysterious asteroid? Or destroy it – or become the new guardian of knowledge about the creation of life?
