Virtuality is a 2009 American science fiction drama television film directed by Peter Berg and written by Michael Taylor and Ronald D.

[1][2] It features the crew of Phaeton, a spaceship designed to search for a hospitable planet in a nearby star system after an ecological catastrophe in near-future Earth.

While approaching the point of no return, the crew experiences problems with their virtual reality entertainment system, which quickly escalate and threaten their mission.

[1] The crew's experiences aboard the ship are broadcast back to Earth as Fox's reality television program Edge of Never: Life on the Phaeton.

Now past their "point of no return", the crew faces the prospect of continuing on for an entire decade within the confines of the Phaeton without a virtual world for comfort.

The communications array fails to deploy, and after Dr. Jules Braun (designer of most of the Phaeton's systems, played by Erik Jensen) tries everything that he can from inside the ship, Pike, Rika, Val Orlovsky (Farber) and Manny Rodriguez (Cantillo) prepare to identify the problem from the outside.

On Friday June 26, 2009 Jessica Blank, wife of actor Erik Jensen who portrayed Dr. Jules Braun, posted a call to action on her husband's Facebook page urging people to watch the movie and write in support of more episodes.
