In the near future, Earth is suffering from climate change,
famines, and fundamentalism. A global nuclear war is imminent.
Interstellar probes from the Breakthrough Starshot project
initiated by J. Milner and S. Hawking have discovered a habitable
planet in the stellar system Proxima Centauri, just in time for the
exodus of the elites. On board the EXODUS starship, the crew starts
to experience strange things. The voyage to Atlantis, the new home
for mankind, enters a mysterious and disquieting territory, where
conspiracy theories about what is real and what is virtual emerge.
THE EXODUS INCIDENT is a novel about an interstellar journey, which
connects science to virtual realities and epistemology. In the
guise of a final investigative report, a scientific treatise
discusses the physics and mathematics behind the story: the
starship, the fusion thruster, the target planet, and the journey,
addressing anomalous effects which involve relativistic speed and
deep space environments.
