Radio Astronomy grad student Jenny Chandler, and her partner, post-doc fellow Kate Watson, detect a signal embedded in radio astronomy data, apparently from the Cassini probe sent to Saturn. But Cassini had crashed into the planet five years earlier and was destroyed. Decoding the signal leads to a discovery that exposes forces seeking to steal the knowledge and control colonization of the Solar System—forces unconcerned with risking the lives of the two students.
