Storyline
Ascension is an ambitious original drama following a covert U.S. space mission launched in the 1960's that sent hundreds of men, women and children on a century-long voyage aboard the starship Ascension to populate a new world. Half way into their journey, as they approach the point of no return, the mysterious murder of a young woman causes the ship's population to question the true nature of their mission. The series features the confident and capable First Officer Aaron Gault, the eponymous ship's Captain William Denninger, and Viondra Denninger, the captain's beautiful, manipulative and dangerous wife (who also serves as the ship's Chief Steward). Also included are Chief Astronomer Emily Vanderhaus, the ship's head doctor Juliet Bryce, the doctor's daughter, Nora Bryce, and Nora's love interest, James Toback. Written by ahmetkozan

Trivia
If a ship were to actually travel from Earth to Proxima Centauri in 100 years, the ship would have to travel at an average speed of nearly 254 billion kilometers per hour. See more »Goofs
While the uniform protocols aboard the ship may differ from the US standards they're based on -- which means officers may wear both rank insignia pins and US Navy-style shoulderboards, which would not happen in the US military -- Gault's rank pin and shoulderboard stripes do not match. He wears the rank pin of Lt. Colonel or Navy Commander, but the shoulderboards of a US Navy Lieutenant (two full stripes). Contrast this with Capt. Deninger, who wears the rank pin of a full Colonel or US Navy Captain, and the matching shoulderboards (four full stripes). See more »Contribute to This Page

Absolutely love the first 3 episodes. My whole family is excited and hoping for more episodes in the future. Very interesting and has an awesome story line! I rated a 10 and I am writing a review to help vote for more episodes. Haven't yet been so interested in a TV-series, this by far has been the most exciting and most interesting and we're hoping to see more very soon. Will be checking back to see when and if more episodes will be released. Please continue to make new episodes. It is very interesting and we would love to see more to the story and what will happen next. Has an awesome amount of action and keeps the people watching interested and curious for what may happen next!
