Twenty years after the Nostromo found the derelict ship, the Geholgod Institute hires deep-space rescue specialist Alecto Throop. Her mission is to find Dr. Lucien Keitel, a founding member of the institute who vanished while following a star map from a second derelict. Throop and her crew follow his trail to a petrified world that was ancient long before life appeared on Earth.
Keitel calls the Aliens his "angels." What he has learned about them may concern the fate of the whole universe. The series anticipates several ideas later seen in "Prometheus."
Deep-space rescue specialist Alecto Throop is hired to find Dr. Lucien Keitel, a renegade scientist who has learned ancient secrets about the Aliens and the giant race behind them.
