Future Earth, somewhere in the distant future.
Thanks to a technology that extends the average lifespan up to about 400 years, humanity lives comfortably, despite the societal problems associated with an aging populace.
Then, one day, a wormhole appeared suddenly near Mars. Via this phenomenon, Earth saw an influx of aliens and, before anybody realized, all the planet’s major cities were occupied by these migratory extra-terrestrials.
Concerned with this situation, Dr Victor Franglin, a leading researcher on longevity, decides to search for a second Earth. In order to that humanity may thrive once again thrive once their new home was found, he creates two humanoids, Thunder and Kyra, and sends them in on their quest aboard the Omega 6 spacecraft.
And thus began Thunder and Kyla's long and extraordinary adventures.
