    Thirty one hours ago, the IWS Crichton discovered the remains of a derelict vessel in an unexplored star system. 
    Eleven hours ago, all contact with the Crichton was lost...​
    When the galaxy's most powerful corporation discovers that the derelict ship belongs to them, they send a group of washed up engineers and scientists who would do anything to reconstruct their shambled lives.
    Their objective: find out what happened to the crew of the Crichton, and bring the derelict back...at any cost.
    But, as they soon learn, there are mysteries that should remain buried. And there are some things lost that should never be found.

    After the explosion of their UEG escort ship strands them inside the derelict vessel, Raynor, Freed, and Chambers must figure out how to escape the airlock they've ended up in and enter into the ship itself. However, with damage from the atmosphere burn the giant ship is continually rolling into piling up, and the absence of ISD Agent Blayne, they may be forced to make a horrible choice: sacrifice one of their own...to save themselves.

    Insidious Consequences

    Insidious Consequences

    DERELICT Premium: https://derelict.supercast.com/
    Having survived the secondary airlock, Raynor, Freed and Chambers managed to save Stevens and access the Crichton, a much smaller ice mining ship docked on the massive derelict. But it contains its own enigmas, ones that point to the reality that this is no ice miner ship, and that the information they've been given about what is going on may have been all wrong. With the atmosphere burn beginning to destroy the Crichton, they must find a way to open the derelict's airlock doors and finally reach its interior...but the presence of a mysterious, dangerous prisoner in the cargo bay threatens to up end loyalties and risk the mission entirely.

    After a disastrous run in with some kind of gigantic killing machine, Chambers finds himself cut off and isolated from the rest of the team. And he is not alone... Taken captive by a seemingly insane survivor intent on ensuring the enormous ship's destruction, he must find a way to escape before he outlives his usefulness.

    FATHOM E1 - In the Dark We See

    FATHOM E1 - In the Dark We See

    DERELICT Premium: https://derelict.supercast.com
    Something has been found at the bottom of Earth's ocean. An ancient artifact that can only be described as a giant door, inset into the ocean floor. 
    It became known as the Vault. A gigantic enigma, buried and forgotten...nineteen thousand feet down.
    Just the kind of thing that would interest the galaxy's most powerful corporation, Maas-Dorian. To study the artifact, the company built a massive, self-contained, secret laboratory base surrounding it. That base is named Fathom. It's objective: unlock the secrets of the artifact and discover what it holds.​
    A group of scientists, engineers, and workers led by Dr. Eva Graff and Commander Joe Freeman have been working on that task for almost a year, but with little to show for it. The Vault has yet to give up its secrets, and their employers are beginning to lose patience. Add to that, some on the base say they hear...voices. Inside the signal the Vault is broadcasting. Hundreds of them. Thousands. Whispering and chittering of a desire to be let out...
    But none of it holds sway over a corporation interested only in power and profit, even if it knows all too well that some mysteries should remain buried. And that some doors should never be opened...

Ranger John ,

Insane production values!

Acting; sound effects, pacing -- all superb! I am hooked!

Dos mil 16 ,

Excellent

Great show. I couldn’t stop listening…until there was nothing else to listen to. Hopefully, the show will go on.

BassoonMuscle ,

Too noisy

The premise of the story is interesting, and the voice acting is very good. I wanted to like this.

But the sound design is so busy and noisy that it’s impossible to understand the dialogue for long stretches of time. Listening in the car is impossible, and listening with headphones yields an only slightly more intelligible experience.
