First in your aeronautical engineering class, first at the military academy, first Indian to set foot on the Moon, a perfect resume accompanied by successful missions and an exemplary behaviour. Now you are ready to save humanity on the spaceship of the Ark Foundation, another medal for your collection. Too bad you changed your mind when you got your hands on the team file: a group of ex-professionals known in the past for insubordination, disciplinary problems and abnormal behaviour. They’re the kind of people who shouldn’t be on Arcadia, that’s for sure.

Twenty years, you spent at the service of science. The engines of the first Mars landing, the plant that launched the first solar sail to the heliopause, they've been solely your hard work, and then... and then these bureaucrats, "all credit cards and no brain", decided that it was better to surround themselves with obedient dogs. Of course, breaking your boss’s nose didn’t help! Bottom line, you ended up repairing robot-tractors in Ohio, waiting for an opportunity to prove your worth. Now, the day has come: the Ark foundation needs someone who knows how to get to the Sun, and when it comes to skill, your name is at the top of their list. At your return, everyone will acknowledge what you're worth.

The Ark Foundation is a nice place for a guy like you. Ten years of research into the use of cryogenics in space flights come in handy when your new employer is the leading manufacturer of the human hybernation system. But now you get the chance to go back working for space and, for the first time, in space. It should have happened ten years ago, if only you hadn’t had that affair. The Brazilian Space Program Directorate sure didn’t like it, when its Administrator found out about your two spicy relationships. Besides, not everyone appreciates the fact that your flesh and blood and the person you married both have the same clandestine lover...

The day they downgraded you was the worst day of your life. Loyal to the system, entirely dedicated to the mission, you gave 15 years of your life to the uniform... 15 years wasted. They called you a defector. They didn’t listen to you, a quick trial, a kick in the ass and bye-bye.Your new life as head of corporate security has not been bad, but the proposal of the Ark Foundation leads you back to serve a higher purpose. People like you go all the way for the greater good, no matter what.

Life sure is amazing! If you had to bet your daughter’s life on someone running a communications system in a can suspended in the middle of nowhere at 3° K, you wouldn’t bet on yourself. Are you competent? Of course! Are you cold-blooded? Quite, but five years in jail and a certain habit of drinking like a fish have made you rusty. But maybe, between a prison cell and a can flying through the void, there is not all that difference. You have the chance to do something good again.
