Space: The Final Frontier. Exploring space developments and theorizing about how humans fit into the universe.
Circadian Rhythms in the Cold
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I had screamed for a little bit, but then that had stopped. My frantic breathing slipped into quiet sips of oxygen. I was cold, so cold. Still scattered around me, I saw the wreckage of Gaia, the ship that had been my home since I was an embryo in its lab. I had never known anything else. Three thousand of my siblings bore the same face as mine, the same eyes, same reserved smile and all had shared Gaia with me. Gaia was an oasis in the emptiness of the universe, a ship that had raised us, sheltered us and fed us. Gaia was our garden. Gaia was home.

How did I get here? Somewhere in a seemingly infinite dark void of what use to be space. I asked for this; I wanted this. Or at least I thought I did. But just like my first time volunteering for combat, I had no idea what I was in for. I thought about it constantly for the decade the process was underway. I thought I understood the risks, I thought I understood the concept of time. Years of injections to prepare my body for the procedure. All the warnings of different scenarios, like being trapped at the bottom of the ocean for eternity. Well, that is ridiculous because no ocean is eternal. But I should have headed the warning a little more cautiously.

[Attention all personnel. Due to the unknown amount of time on planet, the dress code will be lifted to maintain a high morale. However, if it becomes a problem and people get too carried away, we will go back to the modified uniform regulation that was previously in place. That is all. Please enjoy the rest of your day.]
Deon BurtonPublished 2 years ago in FuturismThe Planet of Terror
In the past few weeks NASA has just discoverd a beautiful, blue coloured, new exo-planet far within deep space, far passed our galaxy (the milky way). More specifically, it is located sixty-four point five lightyears away, in the solar system of a contalation named "The Contallation of Vulpecula"; nicknamed "The Planet of Terror", or HD 198733b. Further more, this orbit is fifty-three hours, A.K.A: meaning that one one day on this planet is equel to two point two days on earth. With just this being said this planet is four point three plus two point eight GYR, making this is an absolute monster and nightmare of a planet; with no substainable ground, because covered by storm twenty four seven, this planet has a wind radious of two miles per second; not kilometers, but miles. This gas giant, is also close to the same size as juipiter, though Because of just this one statement for the weather system, it is like if the earth had stopped spinning, throwing eveything in its path. Though if you personally were on this planet you too would be thrown up to seven times the speed of sound, making this in its self one of the fastest and your body would absolutly explode just from the sheer force of those two facts of the planet hitting your body.

Can we create artificial gravity? As a kid, I filled a bucket with water and swung it on a rope in a vertical circle – the water stayed in.

So, tell me: Why is it when you are put into a worst-case scenario, rock bottom is still two or three feet below that. Yet still, manages to come and bite you. Being face to face with this creature, gave me enough to question if the bottom had been hit yet.
Jessica GrayPublished 2 years ago in FuturismLost for more than 40 years, an American satellite suddenly appears and sends a signal to Earth. Who controls it?
A satellite that has been out of contact for more than 40 years suddenly sends a signal to humans. Should we answer? It's like something out of science fiction, but it's playing out in real life.

Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Nobody can see a dream in the absence of grace, that’s why we pray.
Section X
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. If anyone could hear anything I was doing right now, it would be a gift. My eyelids keep drifting shut as the blood running down the side of my face begins to slow. I think I have a concussion. I wasn’t this sleepy until I was wacked from behind. My Del4 Comm which lets me communicate with people who have the same model, wherever they might be, is missing. More likely that whoever bashed my head against the wall took it, which sucks. It’s the only way that I can reach my parents or anyone else on NorthStarDelta, a space station that floats about few million miles from Mars.
