FAR FUTURES ONE

Tales of futures far–and not so far–off.

A deadly attack on a Coalition survey ship on the edge of the galaxy, murder at an early warning station in the Alpha Centauri star system, refugees stranded in outer space after an asteroid strike decimates the Earth, explorers overrun by the most devastating sandstorm in Martian history, an invulnerable superhero with a deteriorating heart condition.

These stories and more as science fiction author Robert J. Mendenhall postulates what conditions we might face in futures far—and not so far—off.
