"The gigantic, cylindrical generation ship Vanguard, originally destined for Proxima Centauri, is cruising pilotless through the interstellar medium as a result of a failed mutiny that killed all of the piloting officers. The descendants of the surviving crew have forgotten the purpose and nature of their ship over time and lapsed into a pre-technological culture infested with superstition."@en
"Een van de vele bewoners van een ruimteschip dat al generaties lang onderweg is, gaat op onderzoek uit en ontdekt vreemde zaken."
