Approaching the Unknown

Captain William D. Stanaforth, a brilliant scientist and newly trained astronaut, embarks on an epic 270-day journey to Mars. When he docks with Captain Emily Maddox, another astronaut on a concurrent solo-journey to Mars, things go terribly wrong and they are forced to consider aborting the mission and turning back to Earth. Stanaforth’s ambition and commitment is all consuming – so he decides to undock his ship and continue his mission into unexplored space. As Stanaforth breaches the unknown, he is forced to confront the magnitude and complexity of being a hero, including the pain he’s caused and the sacrifices he has made, and what it means to complete the mission at all costs.
