In the near future, the crew of the research vessel Orpheus embarks on a deep-space mission to investigate a derelict spacecraft drifting near the edge of a black hole. Upon boarding the ghost ship, they discover strange ancient relics and a sealed sarcophagus-evidence of a long-forgotten expedition that disappeared centuries ago. Dismissing the superstitions of one crewmember, the team brings the sarcophagus aboard the Orpheus for study. But as they journey back toward Earth, the crew begins to vanish-one by one-under mysterious and violent circumstances.
