Anand's Algorithm

From the dying Earth, humanity is forced to search the stars for a new home. The plan was simple; the Explorer crafts find and terraform a planet then make contact with the Ark and Exodus crafts. But when the last Exodus ship detects an Ark craft heading back towards Earth, questions pertaining to the nature of deep space arise, as well as a proportional level of fear. Making things worse, the Ark isn't responding to the Exodus.

Dev Anand is one of many navigational officers tasked with unravelling the secrets of the Ark; no simple task and one that will push Dev's perception of space to the limits. Ryuu Motsuba is a corporal in the ships military that begins to question the need for military presence at all, having to deal with his past in order to fulfil his present and secure humanity's future.
