Their mission was to visit them to survey for possible habitable worlds. More advanced, the second fleet was planned to be launched decades later with the goal of landing on alien worlds. Fifty years beyond that, the third fleet would carry a cargo of frozen colonists. Everything went as planned until the crews of first fleet woke up near their selected stars. Sometime during the long interstellar voyage, Earth had stopped transmitting. Were they still listening? There was no sign of the second or third fleets.

Download or read book Adrift on a Sea of Lies written by and published by David Klooz. This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How would you feel if you were told that everything you thought you knew was a lie? Humanity has been living with amnesia since the dawn of civilization. Mankind has believed that authority provides the truth, rather than truth provides the authority. This book is an attempt to find the truth of our past and the real history of our civilization, why it has been hidden away from us and by whom. It is our story, with a different theory of the beginning of the universe to the coming totalitarian society of today. It follows our history from the cataclysm in our solar system and on Earth in 10,900 BCE, through the formation of all religions, mystery schools and secret societies that still exist today. Because there are too many dots to connect, it instead, follows a thread of greed, power and control through all the world’s major events, wars, assassinations, fake terrorism, fake news, and false flag events, such as 9/11 and the London tube bombings. It reveals our actual history and attempts to provide evidence that demonstrates that this is not a conspiracy theory, but a reality. In the West, the ‘authorities’ want to keep us occupied and non-thinking, with ‘reality’ television shows, televised sports, sixty-hour work weeks, alcohol and drug abuse, texting on our iPhones, believing in the lies or partial lies they want us to believe in and leave the thinking to them. Religious institutions, the educational system, the justice system, the economic system, the media, and even secret societies, have been infiltrated and usurped by these individuals and others with the same philosophy, at mankind’s expense. These individuals have no empathy and no concern for the human condition. They seek only one thing, and that is power, the power to control. To them, power is more than an addiction, but a right. Knowledge is the form of their initial power. They use that to gain economic power, control and influence, and then infiltrate all levels of society until they infect the entire planet. Their religion is worshipping the ‘self’ and their ‘ego’ and they believe that their unique ego is their ‘divine spark’. Their motto is ‘Do as thou wilt’. Who are these individuals? Why and how have they managed to do this over the past 12,000 years? Is there anything we can do that might reverse this during the next 12,000 years? Can we ensure this doesn’t happen again during the next cycle of our Earth, or will it repeat again and again, with only minor changes? These are the questions that I hope to, if not answer, give at least some direction where we can find some hope to recapture our civilization.

Book excerpt: The fifth book in the thrilling Donovan sci-fi series returns to a treacherous alien planet where corporate threats and dangerous creatures imperil the lives of the colonists. The Maritime Unit had landed in paradise. After a terrifying ten-year transit from Solar System aboard the Ashanti, the small band of oceanographers and marine scientists were finally settled. Perched on a reef five hundred kilometers out from shore, they were about to embark on the first exploration of Donovan's seas. For the twenty-two adults and nine children, everything is new, exciting, and filled with wonder as they discover dazzling sea creatures, stunning plant life, and fascinating organisms. But Donovan is never what it seems; the changes in the children were innocuous--oddities of behavior normal to kids who'd found themselves in a new world. Even then it was too late. An alien intelligence, with its own agenda, now possesses the children, and it will use them in a most insidious way: as the perfect weapons. How can you fight back when the enemy is smarter than you are, and wears the face of your own child? Welcome to Donovan.
Download or read book Adrift written by Brian Murphy and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story of tragedy at sea where every desperate act meant life or death The small ship making the Liverpool-to-New York trip in the early months of 1856 carried mail, crates of dry goods, and more than one hundred passengers, mostly Irish emigrants. Suddenly an iceberg tore the ship asunder and five lifeboats were lowered. As four lifeboats drifted into the fog and icy water, never to be heard from again, the last boat wrenched away from the sinking ship with a few blankets, some water and biscuits, and thirteen souls. Only one would survive. This is his story. As they started their nine days adrift more than four hundred miles off Newfoundland, the castaways--an Irish couple and their two boys, an English woman and her daughter, newlyweds from Ireland, and several crewmen, including Thomas W. Nye from Fairhaven, Massachusetts--began fighting over food and water. One by one, though, day by day, they died. Some from exposure, others from madness and panic. In the end, only Nye and the ship's log survived. Using Nye's firsthand descriptions and later newspaper accounts, ship's logs, assorted diaries, and family archives, Brian Murphy chronicles the horrific nine days that thirteen people suffered adrift on the cold gray Atlantic. Adrift brings readers to the edge of human limits, where every frantic decision and desperate act is a potential life saver or life taker.
