When a gigantic comet sweeps past Earth, part of our planet breaks away - carrying a small group of people into the endless silence of space. Soldiers, scientists, and ordinary citizens suddenly find themselves living on a flying rock among the stars. They must work together to survive in freezing nights, burning days, and a world without sunrises or sunsets. Food becomes rare, hope begins to fade, and the question grows stronger: Will they ever return to Earth?
