About this listen

After a devastating alien attack, aspiring journalist Niquish Fromer wrangles a spot on the last fleet to leave Earth. As humanity races toward Alpha Centauri, she interviews her shipmates to save their stories for posterity...if anyone survives.

Told in monologues as the first documentary from space, The Distance Between Stars considers what we hold onto when everything crumbles, and how to let go.

This audio adaptation of Stephen Cavitt's debut novella features 9 voice actors on the journey into space. In Episode 1, meet our narrator Niquish, her war-torn shipmates, and the menacing Und.
