The Mariner Project

With the completion of the Human Genome Project, scientists can now delve deep into the enormous sea of DNA that makes up our genetic program. With so much information, the key task for biologists is to decipher what is and is not important. An unlikely character, a mere graduate student, stumbles upon something very curious in the human genome. His investigation leads him to make a stunning scientific discovery that garners worldwide attention. However, in the process, he sets in motion an ancient program that will transform the world forever.
