À propos de cet audio
An alien spacecraft four times the size of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier enters the solar system.
Tensions run hot within the UN, but the alien vessel doesn't approach Earth. Instead, it sits off at L4, over a hundred million miles from Earth, baffling scientists around the world.
Chris "Crash" Williams leads an international crew to investigate the appearance of this ghost ship, but he quickly learns that the spacecraft isn't as dead as it seems.
Ghosts is inspired by Arthur C. Clarke's 1973 novel Rendezvous with Rama, which won the Nebula Award for Best Novel, the Hugo Award for Best Novel, and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award. Rendezvous with Rama is a classic that examines a plausible, realistic alien encounter, considering the physics involved and the inevitable politics and religious implications.
First Contact is a series of standalone novels that explore humanity's first interaction with extraterrestrial life. This series is similar to Black Mirror and The Twilight Zone in that the series is based on a common theme rather than common characters. These books can be listened to in any order. Technically, they're all first as they all deal with how we might initially respond to contact with aliens, exploring the social, political, religious, and scientific aspects of First Contact.
Contains a special note from the author.

A new way of thinking.
Are we humans destined to a cycle of creation and destruction? We are capable of great acts of kindness and empathy and then we desend into unspeakable acts of cruelty and stupidity. Will this dichotomy continue to define us as we move into space or is there a breakout solution, an evolutionary step, that will put us on a different path? Peter Cawdron explores this human condition and has wrapped it in a story of “first contact” that is compelling but achievable.
