Plot
Jason, a brilliant but misunderstood young boy, discovers a mysterious spacecraft that crash-landed in a nearby forest. Inside he meets Lara, an equally curious girl who discovered the alien craft moments before. While attempting to figure out how to operate the vessel, the two are catapulted back in time to final days of the great dinosaurs. The vessel is indeed a Time Machine. With the help of MIA, the ship's floating mobile intelligent assistant, the adventurers race against time to repair the ship and return home before the spectacular impact of a historic asteroid.
