Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 1018
Panel 1Nicole and Murphy are in an ante-room to the main hangar. Next to them, on a movable cradle/platform, is the prototype they've designed and built.
Murphy: The first trans-universal probe. Maybe.
Nicole: Ugly as sin. I wish you'd have let me tweak the design for aesthetics.
Panel 2
The platform, with the probe, trundles through an airlock door.
Murphy: It doesn't have to be pretty, it just has to work.
Nicole: And if it works, this ugly construction will be in textbooks for the next millennium.
Panel 3
The girls have moved over to a control console. We can see the probe on the monitor screen, now positioning in the main hangar.
Nicole: I don't see why we have to send it out into space.
Murphy: A reasonable precaution. We don't know what will happen when it activates.
Panel 4
The girls looking up at the monitor.
Nicole: You mean it could explode?
Murphy: Or perhaps create a micro-singularity. Or disrupt the atomic forces, warp dimensions, immamentize the eschaton, or otherwise cause a very bad day for us.
Nicole: I like your optimism.
