About this listen
"Condition Five"
Contract work on the moon pays quite well, but life there is so boring. Brendon Parker used to fantasize about a job at Base Gamma, but you should be careful what you wish for. A condition five can make things happen for you.
"Cafe Bliss"
He was on the run, and would never be able to return to Earth. It wasn’t fair to Jayce Ferrier, but that’s the way life can be at times. In the far reaches of space, he finds the answers that he has unconsciously been yearning for. Cafe Bliss, where dreams can come true.
"The Crisis on Planet Arryn"
Narcissistic scientists have lost control of their project, and the planet is now paying for it. A comical story that begs the question: Should we even go there?
"Time Pilots"
Tamara Woolf and Jacob Allen have landed their dream job in an experiment to travel back in time. However, tread lightly, because one wrong step could disrupt the timeline, and the ripple effect can result in a tsunami of changes.
"Space Boats Corporation"
Sometimes, things don’t go as planned, and that is the case at hand. Space Boats Corporation has a monopoly on the spacecraft industry, right across the solar system. Their new crown jewel, SBC’s Starry Dream, launches from Earth on her maiden voyage to Mars, oblivious to those that quietly trail her. A group of meddlers interrupts the voyage, and sets off a chain of events that changes some things forever.
"The Prison Mine on Callisto"
It was a frame job, and Derek Xander would love nothing more than to end Zip Reuben. The prison mine on the Jupiter moon is his home now, and he loathes it. Day in and day out, he endures the same grueling routine; it is a horrible existence. Then one day a visitor arrives to speak with Xander, and makes him an offer he cannot refuse. Not suitable for those under 18 years of age.
"The Wormhole"
It had been studied intently since its discovery 20 years ago. A nomadic wormhole was trailing Pluto, and appeared to be orbiting the sun - or was it?
