Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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 2134
Panel 1In the control room, Murphy and Hugo are still being squeezed into their crash couches.
Murphy: Errnnh … 5000 seconds … how much longer --?
Hugo: Oh, I think 5 million kilometers is far enough, we should be past the shield.
Panel 2
The crushing acceleration has ended, Murphy and Hugo relax a bit but the crash-couches remain as they stand in their diases.
Murphy: Whuff! That's a relief.
Hugo: Now let's hope there aren't any more layers of shields.
Panel 3
Polyphemus pops into a new region, a bit above the plane of the rings.
Murphy (cameo): Okay, we're now 12.38 gigameters from where we were attacked.
Hugo (cameo): We must now bleed off most of our excess speed before we get there.
Panel 4
In the control room, Murphy and Hugo are again squeezed into their crash-couches.
Murphy: Nrf … High-delta deceleration is no more fun than acceleration.
Hugo: Be glad that I thought to turn the whole ship rather than just invert the thrusters.
