In the infinite expanse of the universe, on the precipice of the Milky Way, humanity embarked on a journey of boundless ambition. The dawn of interstellar colonization was heralded by the construction of the Voyager III, within the newly established HG Rickover Shipyard, nestled in the asteroid belt.
As the colossal construction of the Voyager III took its fledgling steps into the abyss, there was an unfolding cosmic drama, unbeknownst to the inhabitants of Earth. In the celestial realms of Orion, a group of visitors emerged, crossing the galactic threshold from the Andromeda Galaxy into the Milky Way, their origins steeped in an ancient, unfathomable conflict spanning billions of years.
At the heart of this unfolding saga was Sted Richardson, an individual who had ardently aspired to lead the very first interstellar mission. He had endeavored to etch his name into the annals of history as the one who would lead humanity to the stars. However, the fates took a cruel turn when an unforeseen mishap, a freak accident on Tranquility Base located on Earth's moon, Luna, shattered his dreams. The accident left him bereft of both legs, amputated above the knees, shattering his eligibility to captain that pioneering mission.
In the shadow of despair, a glimmer of hope emerged - advanced prosthetic legs, a technological marvel of the future, offered a chance for redemption. It was with these mechanical limbs that Sted Richardson would embark on an unexpected journey, one that would catapult him into a new and uncharted destiny.
As the captain of a state-of-the-art mining assay ship, Sted found himself thrust into the forefront of a cosmic battle, a battle for the very survival of humanity itself. The stage was set, the characters aligned, and the destiny of Earth intertwined with forces that transcended space and time.
