Summary
It is the year 2099, and Earth has been gone for nearly fifty years. All humans live on Mars in pressurized domes, in a civilization that had started to feel like the only home anyone can remember. When NASA selects six young women for the most ambitious deep-space mission in history, humanity holds its breath. For Megan Skiendiel, the mission is everything she has ever wanted and nothing she was prepared for, least of all Jeong Yoonchae, the most self-contained person Megan has ever met. Six months in, a rerouted heading and two words, "candidate zone," begin to pull at a thread that will unravel everything they think they know about why they were sent out there. But at the center of all of it is the gravity between two people who found each other at the edge of the known universe and discovered that some distances cannot be measured.
OR
A young medical officer on the most ambitious space mission in human history finds, somewhere between the stars and a discovery that changes everything, that the most uncharted territory is the girl tending the garden at the heart of the ship.
