Interstellar travel, finding an earthlike planet, starting a new civilization in a planet lightyears away from us-we just didn't know. The people of planet Orbinovus were told that their kind used to live on planet Earth 200 years ago before it became inhabitable due to humans' negligence. But ACRO (Advanced Celestial Research Organization), the scientists behind the success of colonizing the planet made sure that it won't happen again. From then, the world remained peaceful, no diseases and virus nor disaster. But nobody knew what they had to do to build such perfect world, until Glayden took the risk to know the truth. Would you dare to step out of your world to know the truth behind its perfection?

Paradise Blight by wdhenning

The first terraformed world, Tau Ceti Four, was now ready for colonization. Some called it Paradise, and it seemed a fitting name. The initial conditions before the terraforming began were perfect, too perfect for botanist Mora Torr. Something was not right. Engineer Gan Finn came over with the other colonists on the Ark Hope ship. He, like Mora, was as much running away from an anguished past as seeking Paradise. But twelve light-years distance itself does not cure broken hearts. "So, are there any alien jubjub birds, bandersnatches, or jabberwocks around here I should be worried about?" Laughter rolled from her mouth at the Alice in Wonderland reference. "Oh, nothing like that. It's not the big scary creatures we should worry about, besides other humans that is, but the tiny ones. History has shown us that things like bacteria, virus, and small parasites are the real killers. The deadliest creature in all the human history is a mosquito with a pathogen." ** Re-edited ** ** Open Novella II - Short List and Ambassador Pick ** ** Wattpad Editor's Choice (January 2020) **

Return to Earth by BobRyan874

This is a completed novel that has been proofed. Editing will begin in April, 2022. Shortly after the first ships were sent to colonize Mars all communication with Earth was lost. The other ships that were supposed to arrive never did. What had started as the first of many became the only ones. Domes were built to protect the people living there, since Mars could not be conquered as the early scientists had hoped. Rather than their dreams of taming a planet, they settled for living with a place never meant for humans. Kierst is one of the descendants of those early settlers and works on the interior of one the domes. His job gives him the solitude he prefers with both work and home. He has no family and no friends, which is one of the reasons he is chosen to learn the truth about what happened to Earth and why everyone on Mars must return. He is among a small group who are entrusted with the greatest secret of his government. If his group fails, there will be no future for those living on Mars. Their secret fate lies with those who must return to Earth.

Red Eden: Homeworld Bound by ME2007Vigil

In the year 2085, Enoch Truss, Father of Mars, led our ancestors to the red planet in pursuit of liberty. One hundred years after the Exodus, Martian satellites detected multiple nuclear detonations across the homeworld. For the first time since dawn of the twentieth century, Earth fell into total radio silence. But on Mars, our ancestors endured. They thrived. Today, two hundred years after the Exodus, our population is eleven million strong and growing. We stand ready to retake our homeworld. In preparation for our journey across deep space, we have sent drones to monitor Earth. To our surprise, we have discovered that human society has re-emerged from the ashes of nuclear war. These societies are in the earliest stages of development. It is as if time has been set back five thousand years. My name is Jack Hanlon, and I'll be joining the First Expedition. Our mission: to rebuild human civilization and lead humanity to the stars.

The Destroyer by authorburton

NOW COMPLETE! This book is a continuation of my previous book called Time Off. Centuries after Earth has ceased to support human biology, the human species lives on. Lola explores the outer reaches and the deep mysteries of the multiverse. We also peer back into the past, where humanity is desperately trying to find a way to survive. Lola is also the pioneer in human survival. Now, mankind finds itself having impacts on a universal scale and must make new discoveries, or else outgrow the expanse of the known universe. But there is a problem. Humanity is at risk of annihilation by its own creation. Please read Time Off first, which will provide more basis. I also wrote a series called Running Boys. That is a great adventure story. It can be read in its complete form or as two smaller volumes that are separated according to two different time periods. The complete form is a long read but a better way to experience the story.

CANAISIS ∞ Chronicle One: The Last Living Ship ∞ 1: A New Mission by -NikaRave-

Volume 1 of CANAISIS ∞ The Last Living Ship trilogy (Chronicles of Canaisis 1) Can a ship, born to sail the ocean of stars to ensure Humankind's survival, save her Captain from the void within his own heart? ∞ ∞ ∞ Canaisis is the last of her kind, a Living Ship forged with Mankind's most advanced technology and artificial intelligence. Together with her Captain, she sails the cold, dark void between stars at multiple times the speed of light-to ensure Humanity's survival. As Canaisis agrees to carry a corporation's entire personelle to their new colony planet, Captain Gareth Levant finds his solitude interrupted by a new culture and a woman whose Gift threatens to unlock the pain caged within his heart. A pain he's carried since before the day he first launched... centuries ago. As if that is not enough, something about Earth's Citizens sanctioning the corporation's relocation rings falsely with undertones that has Captain Levant on edge. He will do anything to keep his ship and passengers safe. Captain Levant loves his ship, as any good captain does since the beginning of time-whether with wind, sail and ocean waves as in the days of old, or in the vast depths of space. But if Canaisis were able to return that love, could it burn bright enough to light the way through the void within the Captain's own heart? Or does it require the Gift of human touch? ∞ ∞ ∞ By @kemorgan65 and @RavenRock2112 ∞ ∞ ∞ A prequel to the pre-story of #ShadowOfThePastTrilogy ∞ The Displaced. ∞ ∞ ∞ SEQUELS: Canaisis ∞ A Captain's Journey Canaisis ∞ A Shard Of Code ∞ ∞ ∞ REVIEW by @Ray_Of_Sunshine9 "...loved the overall themes within the story, and what it meant for me as a person - a mission of delivering hope and finding a new home. ...

Six Bullets For John Carter by chadeagleton

In the future, thieves don't steal your identity, they steal you. The man didn't care who a client wanted or why, as long as they could pay. He buried his conscience under a mountain of wealth and there it stayed...until he agreed to grow the blonde from Alpha Centauri... Burned by a powerful client, the man fled Mars for the free cities, the anarchist encampments along the Kuiper Belt, and the black market strongholds secreted in the Oort Cloud. But now he's tired of running. A slice-and-splice job has given him a new face and new body, but the rewrite will kill him in a matter of days. He's got a powerful gun, but the weapon only came with six bullets. He's sacrificing everything for revenge, but what will it get him? A violent and philosophical cyberpunk novella.
