Quote:In 2059, two vastly different groups of people undergo cryonic suspension. While their bodies are frozen, their minds, still active and awake, are uploaded into a massive quantum computer. The first group is all astronauts about to leave Earth on a one-way interstellar colonization mission. The second group consists of convicted murderers and volunteers who elected to serve their sentences in a virtual reality prison. But while both groups are suspended, a global cataclysm devastates most of the Earth, and their cryo-sleep is extended by over five hundred years. When they're automatically awakened-downloaded-they discover they are all that remains of humanity. Now they face a new crisis: A colossal asteroid is on a collision course with Earth. Together, will they find a way off the planet?
