Things are looking up for Carter. After months of serving coffee, fixing equipment, and just trying to be noticed as an intern, everything was falling into place. He spent day after day sucking up to his bosses until they finally started to take him seriously as a mechanic.

Now at long last, he had been given his first real mission aboard the only large expedition to Tau Ceti, a recently discovered star system that was believed to have hospitable planets. The readings from drones had been very promising.  Now Carter had the honor to be a part of the effort to discover uncharted land. His dream was finally coming true.

But the shuttle hardly makes it out of the atmosphere before it all comes crashing down. Literally. Aboard the only surviving escape pod Carter and a group of crew members crash land on a small island in the middle of the ocean. Their radios are silent, their supplies are limited, they have no idea where they are. It seems like things can't get any worse. 

Until Carter realizes they're not alone on the island.All Rights Reserved

The Chronicles of the Milky Way Galaxy : Gaia by Tcomwg

A meteorite slams into the earth causing a global catastrophe, the particles on the atmosphere block out the sun for years, slowly cooling the planet leading to a world-wide ice age. Humans find refuge in dome cities, pre-build when the meteorite was detected, which are meant to last under the snow for thousands of years. In the process, technology brings forth the age of immortality and unprecedented automation. The result is a decaying society blind to any cause and drugged to survive the endless parade of years. An idea sparks in the mind of Alex. An idea already rooted in the minds of humans since their early appearance on Earth. Migrate. Within a few years, a team had been formed and a budget had been granted for project Gaia to initiate. The spacecraft "Hera" is built in space, ready to take a few settlers to Solis. A solar system which seems to be ideal for harboring life. Many planets within the goldilocks zone and an abundance of oxygen. Is Alex the hero who will rebuild humanity in a new world or someone who abandoned Earth when it most needed its healthiest minds?

Zero Sum by nateofspades

Humanity is not alone in the universe. More specifically Earth is not alone. It is an age of wonder for humanity. For all but a few. Our history has been altered, according to one who has visions of the fractured world that could have been but never was. The way history would have played out without an intergalactic coalition of humans visiting Earth. And he cannot decide whether the advanced human's arrival is really all that it seems. Whether we would have been better off as things are now, or with how his visions tell him things ought to have been. There are multiple worlds colonized by a vast space faring technologically and biologically enhanced human race all across the galaxy. Earth is just one of many of such colonies. At some point in our forgotten past Earth was cut off from our intergalactic neighbors and decides to fend for herself. Later we lose ourselves to infighting and nationalism instead of being true to our nature of being a space dwelling, intergalactic human cooperative. Now our space cousins are reestablishing contact with Earth. Bringing their superpower enabled, technological mastery of science so advanced as to seem supernatural. Eliminating slavery, wars, crime, diseases, climate shifts, and currency, with their arrival. Offering the promise of entry into a thriving united galactic empire. (I am dropping in from time to time updating the story with fresh ideas as they pop into my head this is so very much a first draft I have not even decided on names for some of the characters or different factions of humans that are to be encountered from beyond our solar system)

From Sand to Nand by cpreilly

After getting caught in a dreadful oceanic storm, a cruise liner off the coast of an uncharted island in southeastern Asia crashes. Within hours, the tour ship sinks. The event forces all passengers to head for the shore. Many don't survive. Those who do suffer the unrelenting wrath of mother nature and find themselves trapped with no idea what to do next. Everything would have been social chaos if not for human survival instincts, resulting in a sense of comradery and cooperation. Completely isolated and without communication with the outside world, most modern technologies must be completely reinvented for the purpose of returning home. Led by the captain, his right-hand man, and Pei, an ambitious bibliophile, the community races to assemble the raw materials around them. If the island's inhabitants cannot find a way to escape, they may only make life a bit more comfortable and a lot less primitive.

Never Dead: Beyond Nightmares by JohnPalliser

I crash-landed on Io Station a few days later. I should have let them kill me. I was met with a horrifying scene as soon as I entered the colony. The dead walked. Not only did they walk - They killed. With a vengeance. An unheard-of aggression flowed through them. They infected others by the most painfully gruesome means you could imagine. And I was next on their list to consume and transform. *** Terrick is blown off course and into an asteroid by the UMC Forrest. His only hope of survival is to travel via an escape pod to Io Station. But what he finds there is a nightmare beyond all nightmares. A nightmare that is only the beginning.

Among Us by WriterOfTheWolves

"I don't think you'll find anyone," I muttered. "Why?" "The murderer isn't out there, The murderer is among us." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Emily was glad to be part of the space program. Finally, she could leave her polluted Earth and start a new life on Planet X. Her crewmates seemed chill. Each had their own quirk, their own personality, but they were a team. Week 3: First body discovered. As they sat at the meeting table, looking at each other's colored space suits now stained with Black's blood, she begins to realize her crewmates aren't what they seem. She can trust nobody. But when she begins to fall in love, things get even crazier. Sabotage. Romance. Friendships. Betrayals. 9 Panicked people, then 8, then 7...... (Hai! Thanks for checking out my new story. It's obviously based on the popular game, Among Us! I will upload at LEAST twice a week. Thx for reading! I also wrote this whole thing on two hours of sleep and half a cup of coffee, also while writing a separate book with similar names and while watching Stranger Things, so if you see any name mistakes that's why :P)

Signal To Noise by Poundcake93

A flash of light, a hiss of static, and a city of 50,000 became a ghost town in an instant. The area was cordoned off, eye witnesses were taken away in black helicopters, never to be seen again, and officially, the city no longer exists. The only people left inside the cordon are Curi, Crypto, and Tech, three members of an expedition into the Zone who can't remember who sent them, why they're exploring the Zone, or even their real names. The only thing they can remember is they are tracking a radio signal coming from the center of the Zone. A signal that can't possibly be human. But the Zone isn't ready to give up all of its secrets. And it is more dangerous than any of them realize. [A story for the Literary Lounge Gen 3 Contest]

Never Get Out Alive by Zachar1ahFike

(Completed) Rhent Thomas didn't expect anything to go wrong. He signed up for the Departure. A select few people with special abilities called gifts were chosen to see if life on a small planet just outside of Mars was habitable. Survivable. But the ship he was on overshot and crashlanded on Nexanveer. A moon just out the far side of Jupiter. Now he and the few other who have woken up must work together to survive and get off of this planet. Or live here. There was more people, there's someone, or something else, on this moon, this planet. And it wants them gone, or dead. Either way it's obvious Rhent and his group aren't welcome here. And they all have to use their gifts to survive and work together. If only Rhent remembered his gift, and if only they all worked together. If only they could get off Nexanveer. But the harder they fight, and the further they go it seems, they'll never get out alive.

ElnorseFall by my_wildwolf

Cloverlyne never thought she'd travel to an alien galaxy, let alone meet other alien beings. No one was allowed to leave The Realms, but her people had no choice. Her home galaxy- The Realms, was supposed to be a perfect paradise for the humans that had traveled there from the first planet. It was their empire among the stars, and the special energy surrounding the galaxy gave them abilities beyond the imagination. While some from her galaxy chose to change themselves to survive on their chosen planets, others changed the planet to fit their own needs. In the end, they'd evolved to become more than just human. And nothing could destroy their paradise... except themselves Cloverlyne hadn't known the peaceful days of the Realms before it simmered on the break of war. Being forced to protect the planet she knew as home, she traveled aboard her brother's ship to a forbidden galaxy where the Realmers met beings from beyond their worlds for the first time. But when the aliens start questioning the Realmers purpose in their galaxy, and traitors are discovered, Cloverlyne will have to help finish a war she didn't start, or lose the paradise the Realms once was forever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is book one of the ElnorseFall trilogy.

Waiting Shapeless by KennyFyor

*Completed* Ranked #1 in alienplanet in Jan 20 2020 Please, LISTEN TO ME!! I know you think I'm crazy and I know they told you I'm dangerous, but you have to just listen!! My people are dying! They are being killed, ruthlessly slaughtered by the millions!! I know exactly who is doing it too-but it doesn't make any sense. I don't understand why they are doing it. Please help me, help us!! To whoever gets this message, I can't do anything from here-please! I am begging you!! Please-just get me off this damn planet!! [END TRANSMISSION] ------------------- Earth is not alone in harboring life. The galaxies and universes have been opened, and all the intelligent beings residing in them have been connected and unified with each other. It has been over a million years since the Pentaverse, a cluster of five neighboring universes, was organized and unified. Now, hundreds of otherworldly species live in relative harmony with the one another. The unification was good for many species, but for some species, the change caused unexpected extinction. As a team of the Conservation of Species Committee investigates a mysterious decrease in the population of a robotic species, they stumble upon something that could potentially result in the destruction of the entire Pentaverse. This is not your average Wattpad story about how the 'bad boy meets the good girl'. This book is about a series of mysteries that begin to unfold as you read and travel through space with a group of unsuspecting aliens. This story will make you laugh, it will shock you, surprise you, and it will leave you hungry for more-all the way to the last word. Be aware, there are some adult themes in this book including drinking, swearing, love making, death, and murder. None of those topics are explored too deeply however, so I do not think it is appropriate to give this book a 'mature' rating. *********** @2020wattyawards
