The first teaser for the 6th and last season of “The Expanse” premiered at New York Comic Con on Friday (Oct. 8). And, while it does not provide much away, it clearly shows we can expect more of the exact same high-quality sci-fi that we saw in the last season. The sixth and last season of “The Expanse” begins with the solar system at war, as Marco Inaros (played by Keon Alexander) and his Free Navy continue to release terrible asteroid attacks in the world and Mars. As the stress of war and shared loss threaten to pull the crew of the Rocinante apart, Chrisjen Avasarala (played by Shohreh Aghdashloo) makes a bold move and sends out former Martian Marine Bobbie Draper on a secret mission that could turn the tide of the dispute. In the Belt, Drummer (played by Cara Gee) and whats left of her family are on the run after betraying Marco. And on a remote world beyond the Rings, a brand-new power starts to rise.Related: The best sci-fi motion pictures and TV shows to stream on Amazon PrimeThe Expanse season 6 will premiere.

It brings the audience up to date with the events in book 6, “Babylons Ashes” by James S. A. Corey, the joint pen name of authors Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. The final book in the series, the ninth novel, “Leviathan Falls” is due out in November of this year. In the series, there is a 28-year space between the occasions of “Babylons Ashes” and book 7, “Persepolis Rising,” so this seems like a natural break. Whether another studio gets the program to continue the story with the seventh book stays to be seen.Certainly no “removed nacelles” rubbish going on here, the Rocinante goes through a refit in Season 5.
