Suddenly, Earth receives a transmission from the Queen of the planet Iscandar who offers humanity a device that can restore the Earth to the verdant image it once possessed. Using the schematics detailed in the transmission, Earth retrofits an old warship, the Yamato, now suited for space travel and Earth's last ditch effort. With a ragtag crew and one heckuva determined captain, they set out for Iscandar hoping to acquire the device that will make Earth, Earth once again. Their maiden voyage does not go unnoticed, however, and Fuhrer Dessler, the worshipped leader of the Gamilans, seeks to interrupt their trip at sea.
