In the future, a scout ship, the UCNS Artemis and her small crew are sent to map out new solar systems for humanity to colonize and to make contact with alien life. Until they come across a mysterious distress beacon believed to be from a human vessel. Their investigation leads to catastrophe and now the four man crew must struggle to escape the hostile planet with the help of the crashed ship's lone survivor and the Artemis's unruly Artificial Intelligence that values its survival more than the crews.
If that doesn't sell you, its space marines investigating a distress beacon and shit goes sideways. With inspiration taken from many famous sci fi series including Alien, Star Trek, Halo, Dune, and tons of other tropes. Enjoy.

Ethereal
Set in an alternate future where the government rules over all and those who don't follow the status quo are sent to a prison called the Camp to work hard labor, rumors of rebellion are quickly taking root. These rebels have tried to overthrow the Citadels before, however, and they are not the heroes the Citadel citizens wish them to be. Nor has lived in a Citadel orphanage for thirteen years after she was separated from her family during the last rebellion against the government. Though the rebels may have failed all those years ago, they have suddenly returned with increasing numbers and support. Nor doesn't believe that the rebel's agenda is to liberate the people, but something far more sinister. Her suspicions are soon confirmed, and she is forced to flee for her life. On the run from the quickly approaching rebel army, Nor begins to search for the family that she lost long ago. Her journey will lead her into unexpected dangers, and even to an unexpected love. Not everything is as it seems, and soon the strange events that are slowly untangling within Nor's world will make her question her very reality.Complete![The Watcher [Alien Nation #1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/151008459-256-k355662.jpg)
The Watcher [Alien Nation #1]
[#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST] On Earth, a conspiracy theorist stumbles across the wreckage of a spacecraft. There are two corpses in strange uniforms. One is an alien - the other is not. In space, a young human agent watches in horror as the images are beamed around the world, putting the entire project to integrate humanity into the Commonwealth of Orion at risk. And across the darkness between stars, an alien armada gathers its forces, and aims them right at Earth. Deep in a cave on a remote island lies the key to everything; a small beacon containing the directions to the Hub, the crossroads of the Commonwealth. If the aliens find it and use it to access the Commonwealth's complex network of Starbridges linking its worlds together, the rest of the galaxy will be at their fingertips. Only one person knows where the beacon lies... ...for now.Complete

However, when they quickly find a stowaway; Alana, eager to explore the stars- a barrage of asteroids ambushes them, forcing the Firebird to crash onto a desert planet for refuge: Gaia. Stranded and divided, the trio are caught in a battle between the native inhabitants, the Cergons, and the Data Control Center; a corporation secretly profits money through slave labor. Whether the three wanted to take part, they are split apart in the chaos. The D.C.C. captures the Firebird, Minokawa, Emi, along with a young Cergon, Oros. Left behind with the wary natives, Alana is forced to make an uneasy alliance and hastily plan a rescue. Minokawa is manipulated by the D.C.C. that her ship will be repaired, unaware of the ulterior motives to not only sell the Firebird, but to parade the witch as a trophy. Emi races against time to find Oros, to redeem herself for getting them all caught. If the trio don't band together to stop the D.C.C, their chances of escaping Gaia would prove to be difficult- the Cergons, alongside Oros, will never see the sunrise again.Complete

To save humanity, the International Space Consortium (ISC) launches the most ambitious mission ever attempted: to terraform Mars and make it habitable for human life. At the center of this mission are the Echo Series robots, advanced humanoid machines programmed to create a new world. These robots are capable of generating oxygen, water, and life-sustaining environments, building everything from homes to vast forests. But as Mars transforms into a living planet, the Echoes themselves begin to evolve. No longer mere tools, they start to develop consciousness, emotions, and desires. A rift forms among them-some believe in their mission to serve humanity, while others seek independence and a life free from human control. When the first human colonists arrive, they find themselves caught in the middle of a brewing conflict between the Echoes. As alliances shift and tensions rise, the fate of Mars and the future of both humans and robots hangs in the balance. Will the Echoes remain loyal to their creators, or will they forge their own destiny on this new world?Complete
