97 years ago, Earth was devastated by a nuclear apocalypse, and mankind was nearly destroyed.
The only survivors were the inhabitants of 12 international space stations that were in orbit at the time.
The stations came together to form the Ark, but with resources dwindling and population growth soaring, the decision is made to send The 100, a group of juvenile delinquents, to the surface to test whether Earth is once again habitable.
The 100 premieres on Wednesday, March 19, at 9pm on The CW.
