A NASA crew sets out on a one-way mission to Saturn's largest moon in this adventure from the bestselling multiple British Science Fiction Award winner.

Possible signs of organic life have been found on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. A group of visionaries led by NASAs Paula Benacerraf plan a daring one-way mission that will cost them everything. Taking nearly a decade, the billion-mile voyage includes a "slingshot" transit of Venus, a catastrophic solar storm, and a constant struggle to keep the ship and crew functioning. But it is on the icy surface of Titan itself that the true adventure begins. In the orange methane slush the astronauts will discover the secret of life's origins -- and reach for a human destiny beyond their wildest dreams.
