The Year is 2166: To the people of Earth, the universe seemed to be a very lonely place. Astronomers had discovered tens of thousands of planets and many had indications of organic life. SETI had been searching for signals for over 200 years. There had been a few tantalizing bits of radio or radar energy received but nothing was ever proven to be of intelligent origin. But there was an alien civilization out there, in fact, many of them linked together in a Web of Worlds. They were watching us quietly, carefully and patiently.

Aliens? No thanks. Josh has no interest in the Zatans – or their planet. He doesn't get the hype and just wants to return to Earth ASAP. If not for his sickly mother, he wouldn't even be here.
