And yes, Mars is the only real planet you'll see in this series - for a while. But 50,000 years in the future, it's definitely not the planet that we know today...

Fun Fact: Andromedians are a species of wolflike aliens from the planet Manzurtze (or Andromedus as humans call it). Their name is a misnomer, as they are actually from the Milky Way galaxy, not the Andromeda galaxy. (The reason will be explained eventually)
