The three winners, Antoine, Midori, and Mia, come from all over the world, and they have only one thing in common: they aren't especially interested in space travel.

Little do they know that there was a reason NASA never sent anyone back there until now--a sinister reason. But the countdown has already begun, and as soon as they set foot on the moon... everything goes wrong.
