An Earth exploratory ship, the USS Palomino, discovers a black hole with a lost ship, the USS Cygnus, just outside its event horizon. Deciding to solve the mystery of the Cygnus are: the Palomino's Captain, Dan Holland; his First Officer, Lieutenant Charlie Pizer; journalist Harry Booth; scientist and ESP-sensitive Dr. Kate McCrae, whose father was the Cygnus's First Officer; Dr. Alex Durant, the expedition's civilian leader; and the robot known as V.I.N.CENT. The Palomino attempts a dangerous fly-by of the darkened ship. As they come within close range of it, the buffeting they experience (due to the black hole's gravity) suddenly ceases. They bring more instruments to bear on the derelict, but do not even realize the gravity-free zone is artificial; slipping outside it, they are almost drawn into the black hole, an abyss from which no one can escape. Matters worsen when Reinhardt holds the crew captive, after realizing that they can help him reach his goal. The squad must now figure out a way to flee from Reinhardt -- before it's too late.
Plot.
For five years the crew of the Palomino has ranged through deep space, searching for
evidence of alien life with no result. Then, their mission almost at an end, they
discover a giant collapsar the largest black hole ever encountered and, drifting
perilously near it, is the long-lost legendary starship Cygnus. Incredibly, the
ship is not a lifeless hulk. Its commander the genius who designed the Cygnus and
planned its epic voyage still survives, served by a horde of mechanical slaves. But
Commander Hans Reinhardt has no desire to be rescued. He has a rendezvous with the
incredibly hellish forces of the collapsar and he plans to take the Palomino's crew
along on his doomed adventure.
