Doctor Melanie Destin left Earth, desperate to make a new life for herself. Now after finding a job as ship’s surgeon aboard the interplanetary freighter, Requiem, her life is starting to look up for the first time in years. But something unexpected happens on a routine stop at Luna’s Armstrong Station which threatens to upend Mel’s new life and put her and her crew mates in mortal peril. When she chooses to help a runaway slave, Mel discovers that the young woman has a secret; one that will endanger anyone who encounters her. Hunted by a corrupt government official intent on silencing them, Mel must find a way to get them off Luna and away from danger, all without drawing the unwanted attention of a powerful interplanetary crime czar. Roaming across the Solar System, a reluctant and unlikely heroine sets herself against overwhelming odds, and she’s not going to take crap from anyone who stands in her way. Can Mel get herself out of this mess without someone dying? Can her life ever be normal again? Will she live long enough to find out?
Download or read book Resilient written by Allen Stroud and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Stroud raises fascinating questions about the politics of space exploration.” - Publishers Weekly. The follow-up to the hugely successful Fearless ("...a treat for just about any Analog reader.” - AnalogSF) "Resilient is one of those incredibly rare things – a sequel that actually improves on its predecessor. Stroud presents us with a complex, multifaceted science-fiction experience that offers a deeply compelling narrative, interlaced with rich and complex world-building and three-dimensional characters." — The Sci-Fi & Fantasy Reviewer AD 2118. Humanity has colonised the Moon, Mars, Ceres and Europa. The partnership of corporations and governments has energized the space programme for one hundred years. That partnership is shattered when a terrorist attack destroys the world’s biggest solar array in Atacama, Chile, altering the global economic balance. On Mars, at Phobos Station, Doctor Emerson Drake arrives, responding to an emergency call to assist a shuttle of wounded miners, but when those miners turn out to be insurgents, Drake realises he is trapped and fighting to survive. In deep space, Captain Ellisa Shann has passed her limits. Now, the last survivors of the Khidr have to choose whether to try to get home on the captured ship, Gallowglass, or stay to observe the strange gravity anomaly that swallowed up the remains of their vessel. On Earth, in an undisclosed location, Natalie Holder finally has an opportunity to break free from her confinement, where she has been experimented on, multiple times. Her consciousness is transmitted to Phobos Station, just as insurgents take over the facility. Holder and Drake form an alliance but are separated. Drake is captured and taken to the insurgent leader – Rocher – a clone of the stowaway who caused the munity on Captain Shann’s Khidr. Allen Stroud's Resilient is a masterpiece of hard sci-fi, a worthy follow up from events of his successful and highly-praised Flame Tree Press debut, Fearless.

Book Synopsis Death on Mars by : John E. Brandenburg, PhD
Download or read book Death on Mars written by John E. Brandenburg, PhD and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New proof of a nuclear catastrophe on Mars! In an epic story of discovery, strong evidence is presented for a dead civilization on Mars and the shocking reason for its demise: an ancient planetary-scale nuclear massacre leaving isotopic traces of vast explosions that endure to our present age. The story told by a wide range of Mars data is now clear. Mars was once Earth-like in climate, with an ocean and rivers, and for a long period became home to both plant and animal life, including a humanoid civilization. Then, for unfathomable reasons, a massive thermo-nuclear explosion ravaged the centers of the Martian civilization and destroyed the biosphere of the planet. But the story does not end there. This tragedy may explain Fermi's Paradox, the fact that the cosmos, seemingly so fertile and with so many planets suitable for life, is as silent as a graveyard. We must immediately send astronauts to Mars to maximize our knowledge of what happened there, and learn how to avoid Mars’ fate. Includes an 8-page color section.

Download or read book Experiment Thrae written by David A. Mell and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experiment Thrae By: David A. Mell In a human suspension unit awaits a man with knowledge of the past. He possesses abilities in all sciences, long been lost and soon will be reanimated and born to a second life. His voice and ideas have been silent for over eight generations where in his time normal emotions included domination, pride, and a hatred towards being controlled. Upon his rebirth and new existence, a series of complexities would occur largely due to an artificial intelligence called Cytron I who now controls mankind. Originally designed as an advisor, Cytron I’s programming included an ability to develop emotions through his interactions and life events; however, parameters did not prevent him from becoming a dictator, desiring domination over all humans. Despite ultimate control over mankind, life spans were extended through the development of artificial organs and body parts allowing some humans to become living machines. Lifespans ultimately increased causing overpopulation and a need for new living space. Artificial environmental systems were developed and exist on the moon of Earth, other planets, and within artificially constructed planetoids. One such example is Phobos II, a reconstructed moon of Mars. Within it, are millions of humans who have surrendered individual freedom to Cytron I. Awoken, Dr. Thrae will apply his knowledge and abilities towards the creation of a totally natural artificial planet. His knowledge and abilities the location, methodology and all events were to be totally controlled by Dr. Thrae, devoid of all possible actions and intents of Cytron I. A power play would continually be played between Dr. Thrae and Cytron I in an attempt to demonstrate superiority over the other. Yet the newly created planet would cause situations and conditions previously unknown to man or machine. Plants and animals would undergo genetic changes to cause a biological retroevolution. The past and the future will collide to form a new reality. Will Dr. Thrae and Cytron I coexist? Will their competitive domination prohibit a new normality on a possible new world for mankind? Will the success of the newly formed planet lead to the salvation or destruction of Earth? The answers may have already been known in the history of Earth.
Book Synopsis The New World on Mars by : Robert Zubrin
Download or read book The New World on Mars written by Robert Zubrin and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Zubrin, world-renowned space authority and founding president of the Mars Society, taps today’s newest science and most dogged research to foretell in astounding detail the brave, new Martian civilization we will achieve when (not if!) humankind colonizes Mars When Robert Zubrin published his classic book The Case for Mars a quarter century ago, setting foot on the Red Planet seemed a fantasy. Today, manned exploration is certain, and as Zubrin affirms in The New World on Mars, so too is colonization. From the astronautical engineer venerated by NASA and today’s space entrepreneurs, here is what we will achieve on Mars and how. SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Virgin Galactic are building fleets of space vehicles to make interplanetary travel as affordable as Old-World passage to America. We will settle on Mars, and with our knowledge of the planet, analyzed in depth by Dr. Zubrin, we will utilize the resources and tackle the challenges that await us. What we will we build? Populous Martian city-states producing air, water, food, power, and more. Zubrin’s Martian economy will pay for necessary imports and generate income from varied enterprises, such as real estate sales—homes that are airtight and protect against cosmic space radiation, with fish-farm aquariums positioned overhead, letting in sunlight and blocking cosmic rays while providing fascinating views. Zubrin even predicts the Red Planet customs, social relations, and government—of the people, by the people, for the people, with inalienable individual rights—that will overcome traditional forms of oppression to draw Earth immigrants. After all, Mars needs talent. With all of this in place, Zubrin’s Red Planet will become a pressure cooker for invention in bioengineering, synthetic biology, robotics, medicine, nuclear energy, and more, benefiting humans on Earth, Mars, and beyond. We can create this magnificent future, making life better, less fatalistic. The New World on Mars proves that there is no point killing each other over provinces and limited resources when, together, we can create planets.
Download or read book Millennium Past written by Bryant Griggs and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennium Past: Evils Conspiracy attempts to remedy this long-standing deception and be a revelation through the labor of creative literature. It hopes to share with the Jew, the Christian, the Muslim, the Buddhists, the Hindu, the Taoists, the backslider, the spiritualist, the war enthusiast, the nonbeliever, and the curious a hidden truth that came before the foundation of the world and the ages of mans glory. If you dont take my word for it, study yourself. I dare you to do an exegesis of Hebrews Old and New Testament texts, study the importance of the name in its originality, then continue to call Elohim, God, Lord, Hashem, Jesus, Yeshua, and especially, Jehovah, a man-made moniker devised by Catholic monks in the Middle Ages. If you continue in those lies, you only show Yahweh your stiff-necked, hard hearts and incapacity to germinate the seed of life because it fell on stony ground. The Christians search will only come to light when he or she walks in love, forgives, and faithfully calls on the name of Yahweh. As Yahshua says, You shall worship Yahweh your Elohim, and Him alone you shall serve, according to Mattithyahu/Matthew 4:10, and the Prophet Yoel (Joel) writes in 2:28 and Maasei/Acts 2:21 states, Everyone who calls on the Name of Yahweh shall be saved.

Download or read book Marswalk One written by Shayler David and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-07-05 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MARSWALK ONE: First Steps on a New Planet addresses the question of why we should embark on a journey to Mars, documenting what the first human crew will do when they place their feet in the red dust of the planet. The book also addresses why we need to carry out these tasks and, more importantly, what a human crew could achieve that an automated mission could not. Understanding the clear benefits of sending a human crew to the surface of Mars, and how these benefits can be seen back on Earth, is the key to sustained long-term public and political support for the programme in terms of cash and commitment. The book accepts that the journey will be made, but does not specify precisely when. Flight time, and how to get to and from the planet are discussed briefly, to understand why the suggested duration spent at Mars is reasonable. The main objective of the work is to look at what science will be done on the surface – supported by orbital operations – and what hardware and technology will be employed to achieve the mission objectives. This analysis is drawn from previous experiences in manned and unmanned space programmes, including Apollo, Skylab, Salyut/Mir, Shuttle and ISS, Viking, Luna/Lunokhod, and recent Mars missions such as Pathfinder and Global Surveyor. In addition, new interviews with key personalities involved in planning Martian exploration, and discussions about current thoughts on what we need to accomplish on Mars when we get there, will provide a lively and thought provoking account that could generate fresh debate. When the decision is finally made to go to Mars, it will be made in the knowledge that most of the world knows why we are going and what benefits mankind will see for the effort. The authors’ primary objective is to begin this understanding.
