Year 2132, with Earth at its carrying capacity, humanity has set its sights on the stars. You're an obituary writer stationed on SONUS, a satellite corpo-colony orbiting Earth, capable of intercepting radio signals of up to 3 THz.

You've just received a spaceship's pilot postmortem black box, which autonomously records notable sound signatures from the astronomer's standard issue uniform, spacesuit, as well as the spacecraft's interior. It's your duty to piece together a life in retrospect and write a fitting obituary for a pioneering astronomer.

Navigate the state-of-the-art SONUS interface, equipped with keyword search, auto-transcription, note-taking features, and decode this signal from the stars. The journey has not been kind to the audio data as most clips have been corrupted.

Listen to and repair up to 30+ recordings and uncover the mystery surrounding the astronomer's untimely death. Use your marvelous brain to uncover keywords through context clues and inference.

What was their life like? How was the journey? Was the mission a success? What were their desires and fears? How did they fill the dark spots in space?
