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.
Panel 1
External view, Causa Sui coasts alongside the second 'space turd.' The rock is canted at an odd angle.
Caption: 123,124 seconds later:
Murphy (from ship): And here we are, as I forecast.
Panel 2
Looking past Murphy and Hugo at the viewscreen in their control room. It is displaying the rock, with tactical lines and numeric readings.
Hugo: Unfortunately it's acquired a pronounced two-axial spin.
Murphy: I suppose we should be glad the drive system on it has gone inert.
Panel 3
Murphy and Hugo.
Hugo: Indeed. It's also good there's no guidance system on it smart enough to deal with getting Displaced to another system.
Murphy: We can use electro-grav beams to stabilize it.
Hugo: Perhaps, but first we need to make extensive scan-recordings of it, untouched.
Panel 4
Another external view of the ship and the rock, coasting and tumbling along.
Murphy: For clues as to its origin, I get that.
Murphy: But it has been 'touched' quite a lot by the radiation and gravity waves of Snake-Eyes back there.
Hugo: One problem at a time, Murphy.
