The entire crew of the Menlo Park signed up for another voyage into space, so everyone is certain that they found something very important. The problem is that space is too new, so there is still a lot to discover. Those of the Menlo Park simply claim that they are making a trip to expand humanity's knowledge of what is out there in space, but others suspect they know where to find more. From saucer flying aliens to an aged photographer, the Menlo Park has its share of encounters. Whether any are substantial enough to earn them a place in history however will need something more than interesting topics for the evening news. The captain is definitely determined to gain fame and fortune, and has hired the best crew to accomplish just that. Whether they are just gambling on what might be found along their route, or actually have an ace-in-the-hole is something no one will be able to figure out before they make their move.
