Summary
The series is a European dramatic production centred on the geopolitical tensions of the space race, exploring the intrigue, scientific ambition, and romantic entanglements that emerge within its orbit. Its narrative focuses on the international effort to recover Palladio, a European super‑satellite that has drifted off course and become lost in space. At Project Eureka, scientists Altenburg and Lefebre attempt to preserve the integrity of their programme, while the enigmatic Giovanna Waldberg, portrayed as a classic femme fatale, threatens to divert Altenburg from his professional responsibilities. Subsequent episodes expand the thematic scope of the series by introducing the concept of advanced thinking computers, signalling a shift toward emerging technological speculation.
