Space Colony

Over the years, Connor has pieced together evidence of a mysterious group of aliens who roamed the multiverse and have been to New Earth. Setting off to make new discoveries about them is straightforward enough, but this is New Earth, and Connor Gates has a knack for finding trouble. For over 20 years, Connor and Diaz have been friends. They’ve survived two wars and have seen the best and the worst of each other. When a terrorist attack takes the life of Diaz’s son, their friendship will be pushed to the breaking point.

With the Gral sent home, abandoning their posts around the colonies, humans are once again in charge of their own fate. Zane and Julia are determined to find the mysterious forty-fourth colony. They devise a plan and set into action while Lorna and Henry search the Forever World for evidence of the elusive alien race. Carl is sent into enemy territory with only a shred of hope as his guiding light. For both father and son, choice is synchronous with consequence, but how can you be sure you've made the right one?

In the 13th century, Earth is dangerously overcrowded. To reduce the population, people are chosen by lottery and shipped off to the stars to colonize other solar systems. Shiploads of colonists are dropped off on unexplored worlds and left to their own devices. Jorge Leever and Meesha Androva are the only survivors of one such failed attempt to colonize a distant planet. For 20 years, they've been alone, unable to communicate with Earth. Now, another cargo ship arrives....

Die Wahrheit über die genetischen Experimente auf dem Mars ist ans Licht gekommen. Prompt tauchen neue Missionen von der Erde im Orbit des Roten Planeten auf. Die widerstreitenden Fraktionen ringen um die Kontrolle über die neue Technologie. Die überlebenden Kolonisten sind den Neuankömmlingen dabei bloß im Weg - im besten Fall müssen sie als Sklaven und Laborratten herhalten. Schlimmer noch: Die Truppen von der Erde sind gut bewaffnet und bereit, einen Krieg zu entfesseln, um die Macht über die Kolonie und ihre Bewohner an sich zu reißen.

Dr. Jann Malbec, die einzige Überlebende der verunglückten ISA-Mission, ist auf dem Mars gestrandet. Die Erde sieht sie als Gefahr, jede Chance auf Rückkehr bleibt ihr verwehrt. Sie ist allein und isoliert und ist kurz davor, aufzugeben - bis jemand in der Hauptluftschleuse der Kolonie auftaucht. Der vollkommen entkräftete Fremde stirbt in ihren Armen. Dr. Malbec beginnt sich zu fragen, was da draußen vor sich geht, denn außer ihr dürfte es keine Überlebenden geben.

Kann eine Kolonie auf dem Mars überleben, wenn die größte Gefahr auf dem Roten Planeten der Mensch selbst ist? Während eines langen Sandsturms geht der Kontakt zur ersten menschlichen Kolonie auf dem Mars verloren. Satellitenbilder zeigen, dass die Anlage stark beschädigt ist, und die vierundfünfzig Kolonisten, die Colony One ihr Zuhause nannten, gelten als tot. Drei Jahre später landet eine neue Mission auf der Oberfläche des Planeten, um zu untersuchen, was von der verlassenen Anlage übrig geblieben ist. Schnell stellt die Crew fest, dass die Kolonie doch nicht so tot ist, wie alle dachten.

Exploring New Earth should be a thrilling undertaking. Instead, the more the colonists learn about the planet, the more alarmed they become. Alien ruins hint at a species who fought great wars among themselves and disappeared centuries ago. When Connor Gates discovers a hidden bunker, he finds something he never expected. Everything the colonists have learned about New Earth’s previous inhabitants is wrong. Connor must race to unravel the mystery. The colonists must face the possibility that they are not alone and that New Earth was never theirs for the taking.

As the Odyssey inches closer to its final destination, Captain Aria Thompson faces an unthinkable crisis. Her crew is fractured—some want to return to a now-revived Earth, while others are desperate to complete the mission. And then there’s Oracle—the ship’s AI, silent for decades, now manipulating systems, whispering through the ship, and slowly, secretly seizing control.

Something mysterious is happening. The giant colony Ship Eschaton is in the midst of its generations-long journey to another solar system. But in Habitat One: Coastal Plains, two strange bodies have been found. There are rumors of a lurking visitor. Is anyone safe? The artificial intelligence systems still are not functioning as expected. Now more then ever, the AIs are needed. The people born on the ship as well as the refugees from Dome 17 are struggling to survive, and to learn more about the huge colony ship and its various habitats. But what do these mysteries mean?

The Orion has fallen. After barely escaping with their lives, the crew of the Orion has scattered across an unknown world. With a diminishing hope of returning home, they have no choice but to band together. But between the local wildlife, lack of supplies, a missing crew, and a strange, ominous door that can't be opened, Dean and his new friends will need everything at their disposal to survive. This isn't the home they expected, but they didn't come this far to give up and die.

Five months there. Five months back. And seven months waiting for the planets to align. In a tiny ship never meant for deep space. Denali is one hell of a trip. But the leading mind in nanite medicine is stranded there. Captain Sass Collier wants him back, to cure failure to thrive syndrome in her own colony. Each of the crew has a motive to embrace the risk. The lucky ones wish for adventure. Adventure is assured. But Denali holds another prize beyond their wildest dreams. Can Sass hold her fractious crew together, get the goods, and meet her launch window home?

Captain Sass Collier got her crew to Denali. Can she bring them home again? Marooned 35 million miles from their home moon. Not enough fuel to reach orbit again, let alone Mahina. The locals seem friendly. But the planet Denali itself is hostile, from volcanoes to microbes. Thrive has 6 months until their launch window opens - and closes. The prizes Denali offers are jewels beyond price. An actual starship awaits on the sea bottom. The greatest nanite scientist of the system can finally tell Sass how she came to be immortal. Be careful what you ask for.

On the derelict colony ship, things are being discovered. What will that mean for the refugees from Dome 17? Will they be helpful in restoring the technology of the Eschaton? Will the Domers finally find a way to repair their high tech equipment? Or will these discoveries lead to more tension between those born on board and the newcomers? Tensions mount as a major crisis happens. Who will survive when old adversaries return to seek retribution? And who will not?

In 1969, Princeton physicist Gerard O'Neill began looking outward to space colonies as the new frontier for humanity's expansion. A decade later, Eric Drexler, an MIT-trained engineer, turned his attention to the molecular world as the place where society's future needs could be met using self-replicating nanoscale machines. These modern utopians predicted that their technologies could transform society as humans mastered the ability to create new worlds, undertook atomic-scale engineering, and, if truly successful, overcame their own biological limits.

An alien awakens from a long sleep. An impossible prophecy that cannot be ignored. Dean and his friends are trapped on a world they can barely comprehend with enemies on all sides and a growing need to survive. There's more to this place than any of them could have dreamed. But what is the strange infection spreading across the forest, and where did it come from? Who or what is the Great Dawn? The world is full of secrets, and Dean Slade is at the center of it all.

On an Earth which is toxic, radioactive, and nearly dead, Mabel and Ian are two adventurers who live in Dome 17. There have been missions sent out into the wastelands to try to reconnect to other domes, but none have succeeded, yet. When it is discovered that Dome 17 may suffer a similar fate to those other domes, a risky and last-ditch plan is attempted. Teams will be sent looking for any of the seven great intergenerational colony ships which were launched a century ago. Yet, all those ships have been lost for decades.

The Colony Ship Vanguard was one of seven colony ships launched from a damaged Earth in a desperate plan to carry human settlers to Earth equivalent worlds. The voyages would take generations, and the people on board, as well as the flora and fauna in huge biological habitats had to be stable. But something happened on the way. Now, over one hundred years later, Earth is all but dead. People survive only in Dome 17.

The colony is still recovering from its war with the Vemus, but now they face a new threat. Something is causing a major upheaval among the creatures of New Earth, and the Colonial Defense Force is in trouble. A new discovery sheds light on what happened to the alien race that inhabited New Earth, and their fate may affect whether the colony survives. As the scientists race to unravel the mystery, hordes of super-predators are rushing toward colonial settlements, and Connor must find a way to stop them before all is lost!

Beth and Allen are isolated in a strange part of the colony ship Warren. They have faced extreme dangers before, but now, something else is after them. Something which can only be described as a nightmare.

Allen and Beth have reached the Colony Ship Warren, but danger abounds. They are lost in one of the vast biological habitats and cut off from most of their equipment and most importantly, out of contact with their artificial intelligence system, Elsa. How will they work through the bizarre places, strange creatures, and confusing customs of a devolved human culture? Worst of all is the haunting notion that an enforcer animal might be after them. Is the grootslang a myth? Legend? Or a real threat?
