The second book in the Ancient Destiny saga follows humanity's escape from Earth as they search for habitable planets and establish new colonies. SHIP, an advanced vessel left by ancient Martians, has guided Earth's greatest minds but now selects a young college freshman as its final captain to lead humanity's survival.
Craig and his six expert female crew members drive scientific advancements in space travel, resource extraction, and planetary colonization. As global powers build a limited fleet, SHIP and Karen train 140,000 colonists for the journey. The book explores themes of science, politics, and faith, drawing parallels between SHIP's influence and divine guidance while navigating the challenges of humanity's new beginning among the stars.

The author is a retired US Air Force lieutenant colonel and retired US Air Force civil servant. He was a USAF detachment commander, munitions supply officer, nuclear ordnance supply officer, foreign security assistance manager (foreign military sales) over several North African countries, then spent his last 30 years with acquisition logistics and program manager. He had some part in planning most of the new weapons systems that started development during the President Reagan military buildup that brought down the Berlin Wall. He worked on new aircraft, space systems, missile systems, munitions, and new electronics systems research and development. He was a guest lecturer for the Air Force Institute of Technology from 1979 to 1989. During those years with AFIT he worked with many of the graduate students helping them develop their graduate research papers. He reviewed nearly all the ideas for new systems during those years. The most unclassified and public innovations he had a major hand in were: bringing computers into the office environment, and the global positioning system. One of his ideas was the development of remotely pilots air vehicles like Global Hawk and Predator drones that use the GPS for much of their guidance.
