Earth's Moon is home to Moonbase Alpha, a research colony housing over 300 scientists and staff. The base operates several space expeditions and monitors vast atomic waste storage on the Moon's far side. When magnetic radiation causes the waste to explode, the Moon is torn from Earth's orbit and sent drifting into unknown space. The survivors must adapt to their new circumstances, encountering a planet whose inhabitants create a fake attack on their base.

A catastrophic mining accident on the moon's surface triggers a chain reaction that destroys Moonbase Alpha, sending its entire population of 311 individuals fleeing in a desperate bid for survival as they hurtle through space on a rescue spaceship, the SS Endeavour.
