3 Body Problem is based on the Remembrance of Earth’s Past prose trilogy by Cixin Liu, including the first book, The Three-Body Problem. The trilogy follows humanity as they make first contact with the Trisolarians. However, the situation is further complicated by the fact that the extraterrestrials plan to invade Earth. But a 400-year spaceship trip between Trisolaris and Earth complicates the situation.
