In the not‑too distant future, the International Space Association will open a new source of energy on the Moon – Helium‑3. As a result, plans are underway to build a colony for mining this rare resource on the lunar surface. Saruwatari Goro is a 27‑year‑old Japanese man, an incurable womanizer and drinker, yet he is the best construction worker in his field, skillfully handling any loading‑unloading equipment and easily finding a way out of the most difficult and dangerous situations. Together with his best friend, American fighter pilot Jack "Lastman" Woodbridge, he has conquered all the major peaks on Earth. After summiting Everest, they decided to conquer space and reach the Moon. Fortunately for them, ISA began recruiting new astronauts with the aim of exploring the lunar surface. The friends passed the selection – albeit in different ways – and went into space. Now they face harsh trials, for China also has its own plans for Helium‑3.
