Season 1 takes Michael and the crew of the JBI Starship Juniper on a journey to the mysterious planet of Dendros.

The Founder is concerned. One of his planets has broken off communication. Agent 11 went to investigate but now she's missing. The JBI turn to Agent 12... is Michael their final hope?

Tasked with the job of getting Michael to Dendros is the hapless crew of the Juniper, led by Captain Archibald and held together by 1st Mate Septima. With Dr Von Pomplenickel fixing the engines (is his doctorate even real?), Igor making sure that the ship is secure and Mr Grumpy guiding the way as chief Navigator, nothing could go wrong!

But then it does...

Find out what happens in our new 7-part adventure - Mission to Dendros!

A christian adventure full of laughs, danger, excitement and lessons; 'Mission to Dendros' is great for all the family.

Written by James Cary

Starring Michael J Tinker and Anna Nicholson
