The year 2078.
A mining colony on planet Sirius 6B.
:00:26
:00:28
For 50 years, the New Economic
Block, the NEB Corporation, -
:00:33
- has controlled mining
throughout the known solar systems.
:00:37
20 years ago, on Sirius 6B, -
:00:41
- the NEB discovered the solution
to the energy crisis. Berynium.
:00:45
But mining berynium unleashed lethal
doses of radiation and pollution.
:00:50
''The Alliance'', a federation
of mine workers and scientists, -
:00:54
- demanded mining be stopped.
:00:57
The NEB 's reponse
was to declare all-out war.
:01:01
This conflict has fuelled
a new cold war on Earth, -
:01:06
- but so far the fighting
has been confined to Sirius 6B.
:01:10
:01:11
Massive NEB bombing raids have
devastated this beautiful planet.
:01:18
Thousands have been killed
by deadly berynium radiation.
:01:22
Now, in the tenth year of the war,
the survivors on Sirius 6B -
:01:28
- are faced with a new threat
beyond imagination . . .
