Amazon Prime Video fans only have a few days left if they want to watch a show hailed by fans as ‘one of the very best Sci-Fi shows’ in a long time.

Ascension, which first aired in 2014 with six 45-minute episodes, will be leaving the streamer in just three days.

The synopsis on Prime reads: ‘In 1963, the U.S. government launched a covert space mission sending hundreds of men, women and children on a century-long voyage aboard the starship Ascension to populate a new world.

‘Nearly 50 years into the journey, as they approach the point of no return, a mysterious murder of a young woman causes the ship’s population to question the true nature of their mission.’

Despite just a 67% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Ascension has delighted fans, with more people discovering the show in the years since it aired.

‘One of the very best Sci-Fi shows I’ve seen in years. Every episode changes what you think is going on and reveals another layer,’ wrote James Newton in a Google review.
