Synopsis

Remembered Earth Short Stories Volume 1: A Collection

US Tugs: A Cislunar Short Story: Book 1

When robots become as smart as humans, will we be smart enough to help them?

Jax is new on the job and alone in flight control at US Tugs when one of the orbiting spacecraft has trouble. And then another, and another. But no matter what Jax does, the only response he could get from the robots was, "Need help".

He couldn't figure it out and he thought it would cost him his job.

He didn't know it could lead to a national security crisis.

Prototype: A Cislunar Short Story: Book 2

The next story in the volume, Prototype, finds James finally working in Earth orbit.

It's where he always wanted to be and he thought the hard work of getting there was behind him. But when you are responsible for a hundred million dollar prototype, the hard work may just be ahead.

A glitch, or something, had stopped the robotic inspection of the build site for the first fuel depot in space. James was alone, it was downtime for the build crew and his supervisor had gone to a meeting.

James had been distracted when the spider-bot had its problem and now it wouldn't communicate. He was sure the bot was more important to the company than him and that he would be terminated and sent back to Earth if he couldn't get it going. But without a link he would have to go out there, and out there was not like being up here, with the station walls surrounding.

What do you do when your only choice is between your dreams and a nightmare?

The author's near-future universe and series, Remembered Earth: Cislunar Series, features adventure stories and the possiblities of the science and technology of the next one hundred years.

Hard Science Fiction - Old School.
