The year is 2199. Earth, once a vibrant blue and green world, has been turned into a barren radioactive wasteland due to relentless assaults from the hostile Gamilas aliens, forcing the remnants of humanity to live underground. A benevolent alien civilization from the planet Iscandar reaches out to Earth, offering blueprints for a powerful space battleship capable of retrieving a device that can cleanse the planet and save humanity from extinction. The United Nations Cosmo Navy, whose space fleets have been nearly wiped out by Gamilas forces, resurrects the long-sunken battleship Yamato and integrates the alien technology into its design, transforming it into the vessel that gives the series its name: Space Battleship Yamato.
