As the ship Prosperity plunges onwards through the asteroid belt, the captain stands proudly on the bridge. He doesn't know why no-one thought to try this shortcut before. He'll be ahead of schedule, and a famed explorer to boot! But it was not to be...with a terrible crash of metal-on-metal, the Prosperity engines fall silent. Dead ahead lies a huge asteroid - and momentum is not on the captain's side. Alerted by the engine shutdown, the crew rushes to the bridge just as the ship slams into the asteroid. The lights go out instantly - shortly afterwards, so does the gravity. It takes an hour for emergency functions to be restored, and when the lights flicker back on, the crew is greeted with a gruesome sight - Captain Voltaire's body is drifting, lifeless, outside the window. Somebody - or something - threw him out the airlock in the chaos.
Day 1 has begun.
