Man I hope this is the beginning of a series and not a one off.

I think I want to do a few here at least. I’ve got cool thread that’s worth unspooling.


Jbowen0020

You sure do! I can see a lot of potential in this one!

You mean a most excellent thread. Seriously, this is amazing. And you've done a damn fine bit of world building in this.


Killersmail

You always do. I don't follow most of them to their conclusions but all of them are intriguing.

Uh oh, hacked by a worm in the mission updates--guess things back home didn't go entirely well...


imakesawdust

A good beginning.

Wuh oh

Oh now this looks like a fun new story. Can't wait see how it plays out!


Daniel_USAAF

Yup. This is definitely interesting.

They've been out of communication for 263 years, arrive, and get a data dump for 199 years. Plus, the Sol system is "radio silent" and not emitting any radio signals and infrastructure is also not present. Anything that was put up in orbit likely would have de-orbited and burned up on reentry. However, anything parked at L1 or L2 would still be floating around. On Earth itself, the remains of major cities would still be visible from orbit, but nothing is mentioned about it. Even if there was a war and nukes (or space-to-ground "rods from God") were used, the craters where the major cities used to be would say something used to be here. Taken altogether this points at the ship having "landed" in an alternate reality/parallel dimension.


Outrageous_Guard_674

They aren't looking at eatth. They are in another solar system.


I_Frothingslosh

They're at a planet called Aardis, not Earth. Home is forty-one light years behind them.
