When a young boy hears from his father after his disappearance to another planet, he discovers that his father’s plans for the planet Aqua pose a deadly threat to its environment and creatures.

The year is 2092, and though it has been a long time since Walt Elliot has heard from his father, he is now demanding that Walt join him on the planet Aqua.

When Walt arrives on the foreign planet, he is thrown by the discovery that his father is working on a high caliber project that threatens not only the existence of a highly intelligent native species, but the livelihood of the planet’s environment entirely.
