The year is 2052, and the New International Space Station is a nothing more than a decrepit ore freighter retired from the Moon-to-Jupiter run. A quiet backwater for research, the Station's instruments are monitoring Jupiter when they detect the arrival of alien spaceships. They're not here to invade Earth, but to fight each other. Suddenly Earth's solar system is a battleground between two powerful alien forces.
The alien ships have formidable energy weapons. Worse, the two surviving ships can move at speeds considered theoretical. Soon they are headed for Earth, arrival estimated in a mere sixty hours. When the aliens reach Earth environs, their first stop is likely to be the Space Station.
Petty cross-factions must be set aside if humanity hopes to survive. A team is needed to grapple with this First Contact. Within hours an international team of linguists and specialists is assembled under Marine Captain Delano. He and his team of space rookies are soon on their way to the Space Station.
Delano's orders are simple. Make first contact with the aliens, learn their language, and determine the threat to Earth. If possible, obtain their advanced technology. By the way, don't let the Station or its specialists fall into alien hands. Blow up the Station and yourself if necessary. Good Luck!
