In the distant future, the war between the human race and the Gamilon has taken its toll on the planet Earth.

As a means of relief aid, Queen Starsha of the planet Iscandar offers the Earth Forces a device that can completely neutralize the radiation off the planet. For this task, the space battleship Yamato is launched from the remains of its World War II ancestor on a 148,000 light-year journey. (myanimelist.net)
