Somewhere off in the Atlantic Ocean a meteorite crashes down. A nearby navy ship races to investigate the scene. What they find however is beyond imagination. A substance that is so unreal and alien, it’s straight out of science fiction.

Fast forward a few years and a group of highly skilled scientists wait eagerly in Lavo station, a multi-billion dollar science lab, constructed where the meteorite had originated: Jupiter's smallest Galilean moon Europa. With the hopes of identifying the mysterious Marhatta sample- as it becomes known- the crew explores the Europan surface, a place void of human interference since the beginning of time. It’s a place of untold mystery, potential, and danger.

With hopes high and minds racing, the crew soon discovers their objective. What they find is more than they were prepared for; a substance that requires them to question everything they know, even the universe itself. Nothing could have prepared them for the breakthroughs, or the dangers, that lay ahead. In the blink of an eye, their scientific paradise turns into a hellish nightmare. Now the crew must overcome their own ambitions if they’re to overcome an enigma of immeasurable strength, corporate greed, and human nature. If they fail, the price to pay will cost them their jobs, reputations, and possibly their lives.
