What is Ice Planet?
Ice planet is a new science fiction drama series planned to be aired in October 2006. There will also be a tightly integrated game to accompany the TV show. Below are the two most significant press releases describing the show in some detail; the first is the announcement from SciFi Uk, and the second from Spaceworks, who will do do the production.
 
Synopsis
Rear Admiral Noah Trager (Michael Ironside) leads an international team of military and scientific personnel in the recovery of an ancient alien artifact. This sentient alien structure seems to draw on the memories of its human explorers as it grows. Trager, who dotes on his 10-year-old daughter, must also contend with another mystery in his life --the unsolved murder of his wife. This is his obsession.

As they explore the Artifact, Earth is devastated by a massive asteroid strike. At that very moment, the Artifact rips Trager and his crew through space-time to a mysterious Ice Planet at the edge of an ancient galaxy. Their only shelter is the damaged alien vessel. The survivors soon discover they have been dropped into the midst of an ancient alien war. They must now face a journey of evolution and self-discovery in order to fulfill their destinies. The battle often plays out as personal challenges that originate from the pasts of the survivors themselves. Cyphers of the dead will haunt our crew, such as the replicant of Trager’s daughter – through which the aliens communicate. It cannot be her, but she seems real, and a force of great danger and great hope. These are the survivors’ stories.
 
Format information
Ice Planet is a HD TV series -22 X 60 episodes. Available 2007. Michael Ironside leads an ensemble cast in this five-season story arc which is being shot with the revolutionary new HD camera, the Viper FilmStream. Ice Planet, next to Spielberg’s The 4400, will be one of the first science fiction television series using this dazzling technology. Directing the photography is Emmy-Award nominee Michael McMurray and heading the script department is Emmy-Award winner Anna Bourque. Harley Cokeliss (director of pilot episodes of Xena Princess Warrior and Hercules), International Emmy nominee, is directing the first episodes. And to bridge the ever-widening gap between television and gaming audiences, Ice Planet will roll out a mobile game day-and-date with the premiere of the TV series and a console game at the season’s finale. From the producers of Starhunter, Ice Planet promises to be a science fiction entertainment experience unlike anything seen before.
