Camera opens on a star field, with the shot slowly tracking forward and to the right. Slowly the stars form into a familiar pattern -- it's a map of Ley Sector. The camera continues to move closer to the stars and to the right (trailing), then begins to zoom in on one dot of light far to trailing, over the Imperial border.
The dot of light becomes a star. The camera enters the system, moving through the outer planets, past gas giants and planetoid belts, until it reaches the habitable zone. It closes in on a planet there, a planet with no traffic around it, no artificial satellites or high port in orbit.
The camera continues into the atmosphere, down through the clouds into a hot, arid world. Very few bodies of water are visable. The camera zooms down toward one of the largest bodies of water, barely a good-sized lake. There is no down port, and not many buildings -- just a few prefab habitats, a power plant and water processing unit in a fenced enclosure near the lake, a few other buildings like a school and a small hospital. This is obviously a frontier world with a small settlement, but it is not clear what kind -- maybe a new colony, maybe a research station, maybe a corporate facility. Probably fewer than 1,000 people live here.
There is a large, flat area on the edge of the settlement with a small shack nearby, with a tall tower holding a beacon and a wind sock. The camera begins to slow as it descends toward the landing spot. Dirt starts to kick up, and it becomes obvious that a starship is landing, with the camera's POV being from the starship. The camera pulls back enough to show it was looking out a porthole in a door.
The door opens out into the world, which is bright from the hot sun. A loading ramp descends to the surface, and someone begins to walk down the ramp. We can see his boots as they take steps. The POV is that person's. When he reaches the bottom of the ramp, he looks toward the settlement. People are headed toward the ship, mostly women and small children. They all look grimy, and sweaty, and are wearing clothing which has been repeatedly patched. One woman with a young boy heads straight for the camera. The camera heads for them, then stops when it reaches them.
Now the camera changes, swinging around to reveal the person who has just stepped off the starship as he greets the pair. He is a tall, handsome, smartly dressed Traveller, wearing a vest with multiple pockets over his work clothes. He smiles at the young boy, reaches down with his right hand to gently tossle the boy's hair as his left hand opens a vest pocket. He pulls out a candy bar and hands it to the boy. The boy is wide-eyed and smiling. The mother looks down at the boy and she, too, is smiling.
Over the shoulder of the man, we see other crew members from the ship begin to unload cargo. Two people are carrying bushel baskets of fresh fruit down the loading ramp. Inside the ship, someone is getting ready to drive a brand new tractor down the ramp.
The camera then pans to the side a little, so we can see the painted logo on the side of the far trader. It carries a large, stylized MAE. A woman's voice, with a slight British accent, says: "MAE Lines. Bringing civilization one jump closer."
