In Earth's future, a rogue black hole spirals toward the Sol system, bent on ending our world as we know it.

As the years pass, brought together and pulled apart, the two fledgling astronomers share a turbulent yet inseparable bond as they work together to save mankind and open the world's first wormhole - unaware of the temporal consequences that lie beyond.
