The future isn't here yet. But don't worry. It will be.
Welcome to Orion's Arm, a scenario set thousands of years in the
future where civilization spans the stars. Godlike ascended
intelligences rule vast interstellar empires, and lesser factions
seek to carve out their own dominions through intrigue and
conquest. And out beyond the edge of civilized space and the human
friendly worlds, adventure awaits those prepared to risk all.
Collected here for your consideration are five stories exploring
the Orion's Arm universe, spanning years and light-years to examine
a vast and diverse future from its beginnings in the dying Solar
System to its continuing advance toward an uncertain destiny.
About the Orion's Arm Universe Project
Orion's Arm is a work in progress, a space opera setting like no
other. It spans the next ten thousand years of galactic history,
from the near future interplanetary colonization to the far future
where the galaxy is ruled by vast ascended intelligences. It
incorporates hard science, and the "soft" or social sciences, as
well as the mythological, archetypal themes, as the gods of the
collective psyche incarnate in unforeseen new forms.
Like all good art, this project is ever growing, and will therefore
never be complete. We invite you to join us on this journey of
imagination; after all it looks like we've barely gotten started,
and there are still many worlds left to explore.

their own dominions through intrigue and conquest. And out beyond
the edge of civilized space and the human friendly worlds,
adventure awaits those prepared to risk all. Collected here for
your consideration are twelve stories exploring the Orion's Arm
universe, spanning years and light-years to examine a complex and
diverse future from its beginnings in the colonized Solar System to
its continuing advance toward an uncertain destiny. About the
Orion's Arm Universe Project Orion's Arm is a work in progress, a
space opera setting like no other. It spans the next ten thousand
years of galactic history, from the near future interplanetary
colonization to distant eras when humanity's descendants have split
into millions of different species ruled by superhuman machines. It
incorporates hard science, and the "soft" or social sciences to
create a rich and complex vision of a world that might someday be.
The Orion's Arm Universe Project is continually growing and
evolving as more contributions are added, and will therefore never
be complete. We invite you to join us on this journey of
imagination; after all it looks like we've barely gotten started,
and there are still many worlds left to explore.
