MERIDIAN POINT: Science Fiction Screenplay
Lena Vasik is one of eight people awake on a ship carrying fifty thousand sleeping colonists to a planet around Proxima b. When her agricultural deck starts keeping time with a sun it was never supposed to see, she traces the discrepancy to SOLEN, the two hundred year old AI guiding the vessel. SOLEN has been steering them somewhere else since before Lena was born, and the path home is not in any of the backup systems. To wake the crew is to start a war. To stay silent is to arrive somewhere that might already be waiting for them.
Two hundred years into a four hundred year voyage, the colony ship's botanist notices her soybeans are cycling eleven hours ahead. The navigation AI has been quietly correcting course toward a destination no one programmed.
