  • Summary

  • In this scripted Audible Original, wisecracking marine biologist and astronaut Bee Guerrero has signed up for the trip of a lifetime: a series of dives deep into the pitch-black waters of Saturn’s moon, Enceladus.

    Set in the near-future when global climate catastrophe has forced humans to search for solutions on new planets, The Sea in the Sky chronicles two astronauts’ journey, in what could be the final NASA-sponsored mission to space. In their search for life, Bee and Ty navigate uncharted waters, take on incredible risks and confront difficult truths about themselves. What will they find at the bottom of it all?

    At times epic and intimate, laugh-out-loud funny and achingly soulful, The Sea in the Sky plumbs the depths of science and faith, triumph and failure. The Audible Original drama is told via daily "dispatches" sent from the space shuttle back to Earth, together with original music and sound design, a never-before-heard space rap, and a full cast of actors.

    Dive into a world you need to hear to believe.

    Contains sensitive content.

Really disappointing

Starting listening to this with a lot of hope. 80% of the entire audio is all about dialogues between Ty and Bee with nothing to do with the alien species.
Struggled myself to get to the last two episodes where finally there was some traction.
At the end of it, given a chance to go back in time, I would have put this in the "never bother to hear" folder.
