NO KNOWN ASTEROID AT THESE COORDINATES IN THE CURRENT TIME FRAME.
Sid and Patty Wilson jerked to attention as they looked at the
monitor. Had they done it? Had they discovered a new Asteroid? As
it turned out the answer was no. No it was not an asteroid. It was
not a comet. It was like nothing that any human had seen since the
beginning of history. It would prove to be a cosmic visitor that
would change everything for the people of the earth. So begins
story of Adam. Sid and Patty Wilson were making a routine scan of
the heavens in their Nevada observatory in preparation for the
upcoming Martian project. They were scheduled to leave for Mars in
two years to set up a permanent colony. This night all was going
well when suddenly they detected something very unusual. Their
equipment had found an unknown object beyond the orbit of Saturn.
Originally thinking it was an asteroid or comet buzzing toward the
sun, they soon waded into a mystery that would have profound
consequences for all the people on earth. The body was traveling
fast, very fast. In fact it was moving fast enough that once it
swung past the sun it would leave the solar system. What's more
this body could not have originated in the solar system. This was
no comet or asteroid. It was large, very large. And the most
chilling thing about it was that it was heading towards earth. What
was it? Was there danger for the people of earth? What should the
response of earth do to prepare for it? This is a story that
describes a cosmic visitor that changed everything. Adam is the
work of a new novelist, physics educator J L Smith. It is a
stand-alone novel that seeks to be true to the laws of science.
