Two rival astronauts. One cramped spacecraft. Several days stranded in orbit with nowhere to go.

You and Commander Alexandra “Alex” Majors have spent years competing through astronaut training, each determined to prove you belong among the best. Now you’ve been assigned to the same mission: a routine trip to the International Space Station. The launch goes perfectly, until a damaged docking seal makes the ISS unreachable and forces you to wait for a safe opportunity to return to Earth.

With Mission Control working on a contingency plan, you’re left sharing a capsule barely larger than a minivan with the one person you’ve spent years trying to outdo.

Alex is brilliant, confident, infuriatingly cocky, and never short of a sarcastic remark. She’s also a consummate professional who takes her responsibilities seriously, even when circumstances are far from ideal. Between spacecraft checks, uncertain return forecasts, uncomfortable sleeping arrangements, and the complete absence of personal space, your rivalry is about to face its most unusual test yet.

Will you become reluctant allies, discover an unexpected friendship, develop something more, or spend the entire trip trying to get the last word?

You’re both professionals. Surely a few days together in space can’t be that difficult.

Right?
