is a new take on an age-old question in speculative fiction: What would happen if humans made contact with aliens? Adapted from Liu Cixin's award-winnng, the eight-episode series crosses time and space to depict the start of a centuries-long humanitarian conflict with the San-Ti, an extraterrestrial species on its way to Earth to take refuge from the inevitable demise of their own planet.
So, the San-Ti have insane tech, the ability to alter human perception, and a possibly 60-year head start.

Viewers are left with the two women watching the sunset together, before Tatiana kills Ye offscreen.
