In the 27th year since mankind entered the interstellar age, a starship carrying the ultimate scientific and technological heritage of the ancients pulled anchor and set sail from the earth's orbit. This is not the favor of fate, but the curse of the universe - a civilization cleansing program called the "Great Filter" has quietly swallowed up 87% of the intelligent races in the galaxy. When the "Stargate" Planning Administration unearthed the Destiny prototype ship that had been dormant for millions of years under the polar cap of Mars, mankind finally understood that this ark left by the ancients was not a ship of salvation, but the Sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of all civilizations.
