Hundreds of years in the future from our modern day, humans have not only colonized other parts of our solar system, they’ve ventured beyond the Milky Way to explore the uncharted depths of the universe in search of other worlds and civilizations to become part of the galactic community. It’s no longer the question of whether there’s life beyond Earth but where and how far away are our intergalactic neighbors. The human race is now one of many developed civilizations engaged in universal cooperation. Now we need to make sure we don’t piss anyone off. As part of the governmental agency known as the Federated Galactic Integration Administration (FGIA), the Galactic Explorers program employs thousands of young Earthlings with a passion for venturing into the unknown to chart new worlds and find unique people to invite into the ever-expanding sphere of universal knowledge. They’re the new breed of human pioneers. And their frontier is as endless as space itself.
