Mica stands behind the telescope set up on the edge of the abandoned quarry. The night is warm, and with its source in the the thousands of streetlights a couple of kilometers away, a fiery golden aura spills over the sky. They wouldn't have seen anything if they chose to aim the telescope from any of the balconies.
Leila rotates an eyepiece in her hands.
"Couldn't they have chosen a less complicated name?"

The Cosmic Project oleh ManjunathDNaik
1 Bagian Lengkap
In a distant dimension, two advanced alien creators, Maera and Vithar, embark on a cosmic experiment to design a universe within their laboratory-a universe brimming with infinite possibilities, governed by intricate mathematical patterns, probabilities, and cycles. Their project unfolds on a microcosmic scale, yet encompasses vast galaxies, countless worlds, and evolving life forms. Among their creations is a peculiar blue planet, Earth, where conditions align for the emergence of a species destined to intrigue and perplex: humans. Through detached yet curious eyes, the creators observe humanity's rise from simple organisms to complex beings capable of unparalleled innovation, creativity, and destruction. Gifted with emotions, awareness, and intellect, humans are both the architects of wonder and their own undoing. They exploit their gifts, tearing apart the very Earth that sustains them and dividing themselves in pursuit of dominance, driven by greed and ego. As humanity's trajectory unfolds-filled with beauty, chaos, and self-inflicted suffering-Earth itself transforms in response. The creators watch as humanity fades, allowing the planet to heal and begin anew. For Maera and Vithar, this is not a failure but an inevitable cycle of destruction and renewal, a testament to the systems they designed. Their focus shifts to new planets, leaving behind a world that will continue its story without them. This thought-provoking tale blends science fiction, philosophy, and ecological awareness, exploring the interconnectedness of all things, the resilience of nature, and the consequences of humanity's choices. "The Cosmic Project" invites readers to question their place in the universe and consider the delicate balance between creation and destruction, awareness and ignorance, life and the vast cycles of existence.

When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!
