Meh, sorta something different in a underwhelming sort of way.
Tensions flare in the near future aboard the International Space Station as a worldwide conflict breaks out on Earth. Reeling from this, the astronauts receive orders from the ground: take control of the station by any means necessary.
I can only imagine how useful the ISS would be in an end of the world as we know it scenario.
Houston:
"We're fighting and dying down here. Take control of the space station!".
ISS:
"Why? What useful purpose would that serve?
I take it no one's coming to get us, so we're basically stuck up here until our supplies run out?
Right, so fuck you! Out".
