The Archangel-X

Ten years following the events of Confrontation.... 

After denying the people of Earth access to space until they’ve completely divested themselves of all the world’s nuclear weapons, an undeclared state of war still exists between the space colony and the people of their beautiful, blue home-world. 

And despite their best efforts, the former space-capable nations of Earth have been denied any manned or unmanned access off-planet. For Astrophysicist Christopher Wright, the journey he began many years ago had all but seemed to grind to a halt, until a revolution of the mind sparked an interest in faster than light travel. Now, he and his extended family have turned their attention to exploring other planets and moons outside the solar system, and in turn, advanced their research into this specialized form of travel. The dream: to locate and trade with far more advanced, alien civilizations beyond the reaches of man. 

Joining Christopher on his crusade, are his lifelong companions, Chuck and Peanut, whose endless bond fortifies the hope of better things to come. But they know all too well that with the birth of the concept of venturing into space, everything is a gamble, and as the people of Earth press forward with their intentions of upending the space colony’s agenda, soon everyone will have to decide if it’s worth the risk.
