The hyper-advanced spaceship Event Horizon re-appeared, and a UN-led research and salvage fleet were deployed to learn its secrets.

The research and salvage fleet had 7 teams of 5 - 8 players, taking on the roles from commanders and engineers, to scientists and security staff - but all of them will with useful skills for the trials that lay ahead aboard the ill-omened ship. 

Teams represented the UN, a megacorporation, and assorted future Earth states including the USA, Russia, China, and the African Union, all with their own objectives and approaches. 

At first several of the teams seemed to work together, but increasingly things fell apart as some ships refused to acknowledge UN oversight, spaceships were boarded and ransacked for valuable data, and weird goings-on aboard the Event Horizon caused mass confusion and injuries. Paranoia gripped many of the crew and threats were issued, members of the fleet attacked each other, and somehow a small nuclear detonation occurred next to the engine!

Whatever happened next, there weren’t enough operational ships for everyone to get back to Earth, and there were reports of a strange mechanical being that had the face of one of the Chinese crew, briefly communing with the ship before everything started exploding…

It was a brilliant day of chaos, confusion, and supernatural weirdness - IN SPAAACE!
