Space: The Final Frontier. Exploring space developments and theorizing about how humans fit into the universe.

Finally
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Precisely why Jack thought that space could be her perfect new home. The majority of her relationships have all been ruined by her psychic abilities, or, as she prefers to call them, her "tormentors" anyways.

The Starlet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. If a bear shits in the woods and nobody sees it, did it really happen? If a woman wails in space and nobody’s around to hear it, did she really lose the love of her life?

D[R]YAD: An Odyssey
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. One of our eyespots watches the passage of time in the slapdash simulacrum of binary sunlight shifting over ill-suited living quarters; the other gazes listlessly at the miasma of light on the vidscreen, the speeding sundry stars streaked into opalescent fire. We may not be able to hear the sound waves of an exhalation as it escapes from the body and thins into void; but we see the twisting of the flesh and contorting of the form; we feel the panic of the creature as it faces annihilation; and, among those who share the art of Inspeak, we absorb the final thoughts of the dying.

Ultraviolet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That doesn’t mean I didn’t try. If you had told me two weeks ago that I would be in space or even that aliens existed, I would have laughed. I have always been interested in alien movies or video games, but never in a million years did I think I would personally experience it.

The Word of an Artificial God
Chapter 1 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But, for the first time in his life, Ponticus felt no fear. Despite his status as a stowaway on a military cruiser hurtling towards its destination amongst the great unknown of the cosmos, he was at peace. He knew that under the unprecedented guidance of Maiiyah, all of life’s prodigious mysteries would unravel for him, and armed with that knowledge he need not fear the vacuum of space, or whatever awaits him at his destination.

3081: Hyperlane Blues
In space, nobody can hear you scream. This, of course, only applies if space is still a vacuum. Sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it’s a jelly. A sticky, ship-trapping jelly.

Serenity's Quest
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Except for the Lumarians, of course. The remaining members of their race, few as they were, had been in a high state of distress, after hearing the screams of terror and despair for days.

The Second Space Race
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. In fact, they’re banking on it. It was around the turn of the millennium that the second space race started. The ultra-wealthy – the moguls, the royals, the oligarchs – mainly men, competing against each other about whose rocket ship is bigger – and stronger, and faster, and better, and carbon-neutral, of course. They had already conquered the seas with their superyachts, the skies with their private jets, and society with their economic and political clout and corruption. Space was next.

Entropy's Last Dance
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Entropy dances outward, ever expanding. The grand illusion is order and form, when everything is actually descending into chaos. If they could hear, if their consciousness was really expanding, they would hear the screaming. For some of us, there is not an illusion at all. They do not hear the agony I experience as I shift from nothing into something, as form breathes out of me just to explode again into particles and light. The humans balk at something being both things simultaneously. They do not yet realize there are creatures that are not just in two places at once, but everywhere all at once, existing only to give them the illusion of order. Blinking our consciousness from place to place, we lend form and energy to their experiences at our expense.

Space Oddity
No one can hear the screams in the vacuum of space, or so they say. And as I float there, screaming, I realized they were wrong.

CIRCLING CHAOS
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Althea had been told not to go off the ship, she had been warned. The consequences would be dire but she couldn’t stay away; the stairs called to her, beckoning her to have a look, that’s all—just one simple look.

Jove's Heart
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Aboard a nice, pressurized spacecraft like the Fulminus, however, anybody can.
