SONG OF METHUSELAH: An industrial sci-fi adventure of discovery and horror

I finally finished my industrial sci-fi adventure, SONG OF METHUSELAH. It uses 24XX to tell a story of exploration and horror. 

Five days ago, a radio telescope on Erebus Station detected an ultra-low frequency fast radio burst (FRB) originating from the direction of Methuselah, the oldest star in the known universe. Upon further analysis, a message fragment was discovered hidden within the FRB: directions for constructing a machine of unknown purpose.  

Players are members of a scientific team assembled by the Wellstone-Rubicon Corporation. Their mission: reach Methuselah as soon as possible to locate the signal's origin, decode the full message, and determine the nature of the device. Speed is of the essence as WRC’s competitors rush to be the first on site.   

Touchstones and inspirations for the adventure include the films Contact (1997) and Signal (2007) as well as the Season 3 episode of Love, Death, & Robots, “In Vaulted Halls Entombed” (2022).
