The SYFY series The Ark has proven to be a remarkable space opera with a young crew navigating space with one disaster after another.

Now, these survivors of Earth soon realize they’re not alone in space after all.

Samantha Glassner joins the cast as Kelly Fowler, the lone survivor on another ship. These revelations revealed more survivors from their home planet and possibly reveal their true enemies of the expedition. As for her character, she holds the answers to help the crew of Ark One to survive this impending conflict.

The series stars Christie Burke, Richard Fleeshman, Reece Ritchie, Stacey Read, and Ryan Adams.

Here is the description of the series:

Created by Dean Devlin, The Ark takes place 100 years in the future when planetary colonization missions have begun as a necessity to help secure the survival of the human race. The first of these missions on a spacecraft known as Ark One encounters a catastrophic event causing massive destruction and loss of life. With more than a year left to go before reaching their target planet, a lack of life-sustaining supplies and loss of leadership, the remaining crew must become the best versions of themselves to stay on course and survive.
