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.

(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.)
Panel 1
External view of Causa Sui (remember that one?) cruising through space, with the 'Snake-Eyes' double-black-hole in the background
Caption: The Causa Sui, accelerating away from 'Snake-Eyes,' the double-black-hole.
Hugo (from ship): We've achieved 0.15C, relative to Snake-Eyes. That should be enough.
Panel 2
In the control room, Murphy and Hugo stand at their stations.
Murphy: I doubt that very much.
Hugo: I ran the equations three times.
Hugo: The missile should be approaching at 0.16C within half an hour.
Panel 3
External view, the missle zooms past Causa Sui in a flash.
Hugo (from ship): It should then be easy to … eh?
Panel 4
Back in the control room, Murphy smirks while Hugo does a slow burn.
Murphy: I read it at 0.16C relative to us. I told you, Hugo, you skipped a transform.
Hugo: Very well, Murphy. You may compute how long it will take us to catch up to it.
