Like many of you out there, I'm looking forward to checking out SyFy's upcoming ten-episode adaptation of George R.R. Martin's (GAME OF THRONES) sci-fi novella NIGHTFLYERS. And if you're counting down the days like this guy, then you'll want to make sure to take note that today SYFY has released the first five minutes over on YouTube. Check it out below!

Set in the year 2093, NIGHTFLYERS follows 

A team of scientists aboard The Nightflyer, the most advanced ship ever built, as they embark on a journey to find other life forms.
