Synopsis
On the far side of the Moon, the crew of Moonbase Columbus discovers a massive alien structure being constructed atom by atom by microscopically small, intelligent machines. As the unstoppable nanotechnology assemblers spread and threaten to reach Earth, scientists and astronauts race to understand and contain a force that could either transform or destroy humanity.
