Tellus Seconda
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Stella knew this happened to be true. As her name suggested her parents had always been obsessed with the stars; this universe; and most importantly - our place in them.

Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. What am I talking about?
