Intergalactic Travels: poems from a fugitive alien is a poetry memoir that takes up the intersections of Indigeneity, Blackness, queerness and migration as it relates to U.S. federal immigration law. The book pushes the boundaries of an "undocumented immigrant narrative"via the poet's refusal to belong to United Statian society and the refusal of a structured poetics.In fact, the chaotic geographies of the manuscript (collages + photographs + emails + negative space) formulate theories of fugitivity that position the transAtlantic slave trade and Indigenous dispossession as root causes of undocumented immigration. In this refusal of national belonging and form, the book asks for a critical kinship that the law can never account for, and thus, Pelaez Lopez negotiates legal status for new imaginaries of care. As a whole, the manuscript asks: "what does it mean that a descendant of enslaved Africans becomes an illegal alien in the same continent that subjugated their ancestors to chattel slavery?" Furthermore, "can an Indigenous subject of this continent be considered 'illegal' in the continent of their ancestors?"

Asteroid mining is the exploitation of raw materials from asteroids and other minor planets, including near-Earth objects. Based on known terrestrial reserves, and growing consumption in both developed and developing countries, key elements needed for modern industry and food production could be exhausted on Earth within 50 to 60 years. In response, it has been suggested that platinum, cobalt and other valuable elements from asteroids may be mined and sent to Earth for profit, used to build solar-power satellites and space habitats, and water processed from ice to refuel orbiting propellant depots. Looking beyond the Milky Way, there are at least 2 trillion other galaxies in the observable universe. Space colonization can roughly be said to be possible when the necessary methods of space colonization become cheap enough to meet the cumulative funds that have been gathered for the purpose, in addition to estimated profits from commercial use of space. Intergalactic travel would either have to involve voyages lasting millions of years, or a possible faster than light propulsion method based on speculative physics, such as the Alcubierre drive. There are, however, no scientific reasons for stating that intergalactic travel is impossible in principle. Uploaded human minds or AI may be transmitted to other galaxies in the hope some intelligence there would receive and activate them.

Planet Ship Earth has had many mythical stories. Intergalactic Tribunal™ is about the greatest one ever conceived, developed, and implemented. This powerful story grabbed the inhabitants of earth and sky, and convinced them that to believe is to know. As a result they remain in perpetual ignorance never seeking to know. The main character of this Intergalactic Gospel Fiction is the only son of a man-made God, who created the universe in which he resides. He has no mate male of female. Everyone who wishes to live forever in bliss must pledge their lives to this Man Made God via the worship of his only begotten son. Those that are not afraid to think will find the content of this book intriguing and thought provoking. They'll realize that outrageous thoughts they have had are shared by others. They'll be relieved to know they are not alone in this confusion, called human society. Technological components are unprecedented, trailblazing and surprising. For example the technology that implanted hostile entities into the blood stream to be manifested by the pressing of certain fingers, coughing and spitting. War Theatres will add this to their think tank data banks globally. It's scary to think of the effect this would have in the hands of so-called terrorists. This book can be viewed as a self help educational reference tool, a thought provoker, or just a fun book to read. There are elements of interest for all matured minds, beings that are searching for clarity, and those exploring beyond the matrix of illusion. The fact that man created God so God could make him is evident. It is not hard to create a belief system complete with a god of your design, and giving him or her all the powers you can imagine. This and other thought provoking questions are asked and answered. I am very much aware that this book will not change anyone. My hope is that readers will be motivated enough to investigate its content to see if there be anything that might enhance their lives or that of someone they know and care about. I hope Intergalactic Tribunal™ will provide food for thoughts to the degree that readers will discuss it among their families, friends, and associates. I trust all will find something of value. I invite you all to engage the process of thinking to arrive at decisions which impact your lives. Refuse to be a slave to anyone's belief. Seek to Know Always Terry L. Brown – SOL

This book is a follow on to my first book The Knife. This book takes the reader on an Adventure through deep space with all of the inherent trails and tribulations of such a voyage.

This is a voyage of discovery, not only for parts unknown, but also of a mans discovery of himself. This is a book of fiction, but could it happen or better yet has it happened already?

In the early months of 1966, a handsome, hardworking thirty-five-year-old Canadian-born actor named William Shatner was cast as Captain Kirk in Star Trek, a troubled, low-budget science-fiction television series set to premiere that fall on NBC. Star Trek struggled for viewers and lasted only three seasons, but it found a huge, rabidly dedicated audience when it premiered in syndication following its cancellation—turning Shatner into a pop-culture icon and launching him on a career path he never could have imagined after graduating from McGill University with an economics degree twenty years earlier. As he approaches his ninetieth year, he's still working at a furious pace as a man of boundless contradictions: by turns one of the most dissected, disliked, revered, respected, mocked, imitated, and beloved stars in the show business firmament. Shatner takes a comprehensive look at this singular performer, using archival sources and information culled from interviews with friends and colleagues to transport readers through William Shatner's remarkably bumpy career: his spectacular failures and triumphs; tragedies, including the shocking death of his third wife, Nerine; and, ultimately, the resilience Shatner has shown, time and again, in the face of overwhelming odds. Author Michael Seth Starr unravels the mystery of William Shatner, stripping away the many myths associated with his personal life and his relationships with fellow actors, presenting a no-holds-barred, unvarnished look at the unique career of an inimitable performer.
