Worlds Away’s first season, Convergence, begins 250 years in our future. Humanity is an interstellar species, and has just survived its first civil war in space. The story follows the Minerva Project, a mission sent into the Verge—the home of all known life outside of Earth.
While their mission begins as a push for unity with Earth’s former colonies, the four members of the Minerva Project crew will soon learn a secret that threatens the future of humanity’s presence in space.
Worlds Away is a finalist for the Best New Production category.

A political figure made famous after tragedy struck his family, Nasir was once an engineer who called the Verge his home.
As he returns to humanity’s frontier for the first time in years, Nasir will also face the past that he tried to leave behind.
As Chief Technology Officer of Genesynth, Mara is the scientist responsible for the crops that allowed humanity to thrive in the Verge, and to eventually gain their independence from Earth.

Her unparalleled talents have earned her a place in the Minerva Project, but the truth behind her success could put everything at risk.
