The Eureka Effect
In the year 2012, a great and powerful asteroid sent all the way from the Andromeda galaxy passed through our solar system with one goal. The destruction of the human race and the rest of the life on earth. The asteroid collided with the earth sending strange dust into the atmosphere. From a cave on the far side of the earth, a group of kids, about 50 ranging from ages 6-18, hid in a cave that had walls of pure metals and stones. There was nothing special about them until that day.

The Lost Tribe: Enoch's Children Book 4
Neither Cory nor Thomas could imagine how a trip across the desert in a borroed 1992 Ford Explorer could end in a discovery that would rock the country. A broken drive shaft stranded them. The decision to hike home across sacred Indian lands took them to the glass canyon. The discovery of a wooden door in the wall of that canyon introduced them to a people who had hidden in the deep caves for a hundred and sixty years. The only possible danger would be to the people themselves. They would not be immune to diseases we take for granted. They would be confused by a civilization that passed them by. Their light-deprived skins would be easily burned by a sun they'd never seen. There shouldn't be any danger to the boys unless an old enemy sends an assassin to settle his vendetta with them. Such an assassin would be more devious and vicious than his master. The boys recognize him only after Salah, their mentor, is struck down in front of them. They have to dig deep for courage enough to survive and find justice for Salah and his family.Complete

Unbounded
In the future, clouds of microscopic probes are launched at near-light-speed from Earth to nearby star systems. After transmitting their findings back to Earth, a starship ferries thousands of colonists to a new world. But the manned expedition finds something very different from what the probes promised. Now, while struggling to fit in with a crew of scientists, ship's clerk Ryder Kask works to uncover the growing mysteries surrounding their mission.Complete
RESCUE MODE
The first human mission to Mars meets with near-disaster when a meteoroid strikes the spacecraft, almost destroying it. The ship is too far from Earth to simply turn around and return home. The eight-person crew must ride their crippled ship to Mars while they desperately struggle to survive. On Earth, powerful political forces that oppose human spaceflight try to use the accident as proof that sending humans into space is too dangerous to continue. The whole human space flight program hangs in the balance. And if the astronauts can't nurse their ship to Mars and back, the voyagers will become either the first Martian colonists-or the first humans to perish on another planet.
Supernovae and Life
Space and time began about 13.7 billion years ago but it consisted almost exclusively of hydrogen until some stars grew sufficiently massive to create the heavier elements in gigantic explosions called supernovae. The Sun formed about 4.6 billion years ago with an orbiting disk of debris that became the Solar System and, about 4.4 billion years ago, the Earth was cool enough for liquid water. Oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus make up 99% of the mass of the human body. These elements combine to form molecules ranging from water to the twin helices of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that specify the genetic code. Life on Earth probably began with complex, virus-like molecules that over billions of years evolved cells and the ability to split carbon dioxide and water (H2O). The poisonous waste product, oxygen, released into the atmosphere, probably caused the first mass extinctions on Earth. WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved the health, education, and longevity of almost everyone. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. Civilization began when we discovered how to use fire and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture and trade made us richer but we also discovered how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).Complete
Depth Charge - illuminations
For years, man has looked to the sky to find out if life from other worlds really exists, if we are not alone. The answer is a solid yes, but, we were looking the wrong way! Unbeknownst to us, we had already made contact, but did not know what we were looking at. Planet earth was inhabited many years before humans came into existence. The aliens came to turn planet earth into something that would ensure their future survival, a giant fly trap, and we are the flies!Complete
