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 Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 1497
Panel 1Cut to the Starship Pbbttppbt-fff – Hugo, CP and the entourage are in a large room dominated by four large (1.5-meter thick) conduits intersecting in 3-meter-thick globe in the center. There are consoles all around, with crewmembers attending some of them.
Caption: Meanwhile, in the Pbbttppbt-fff engine room:
CP: The heart of our star-drive.
CP: Annihilation energy is focused and refracted to the nacelles in our drive ring.
Panel 2
Medium c/u on CP and Hugo, gazing up at the globe.
CP: The ring, of course, creates the warp-field which enables faster-than-light travel.
Hugo: Yes yes, of course. Quite ingenious, actually.
Hugo: How fast is this drive capable of moving us?
Panel 3
Another angle on CP and Hugo, where we can see Hugo casually touching one of the consoles with his hand.
CP: That is … classified.
CP: However, I can tell you that we generally cruise at about 200 times light-speed.
Hugo: That quickly, eh? Impressive.
