Synopsis/Details
When the captain and surrogate father of the motley crew manning the deep space ice mining vessel "St. Augustine" finds the motherlode that can change their lives forever, he never imagined that this would be the mission where everything went wrong. During the mining process, a rogue piece of asteroid collides with the ship and knocks out power and life support. With no air, no water, and no heat to rely on, the crew of the St. Augustine will have to dig deep within themselves to find the one thing that space can't take from them.
