Governing a colony isn’t easy. I mean, I should be in my last year of school, stressing over exams and annoying my parents, not on some distant planet as a ransom for my world’s good behavior. Instead, I’m running a colony of five, while doing classes on planetary development, so when a strange spacecraft goes overhead, flying fast and low, toward a group of colonists I haven’t met yet? Well, even my Keepers think we have to move fast, or risk losing friends we’ve never met. And here I was thinking they’d dealt with the Heritage threat.

Missing colonists found. Check. Treaties signed. Check. Request for assistance received. Che—What? With New Haven missing two colonists in suspicious circumstances, it’s up to Mitch and I to find them. Something about the Heritage and us having done this kind of thing before and can we find them pretty please. Ugh. With details light on the ground, we’re only sure of one thing: That whatever we’re about to get ourselves into? It’s going to be a lot more complicated than anyone can expect. The only question is: Can we survive this, too? Or will the Heritage finally gain the advantage they need to take us down for good?

An insider's look at the cutting-edge science of today's planet hunters In Strange New Worlds, renowned astronomer Ray Jayawardhana brings news from the front lines of the epic quest to find planets—and alien life—beyond our solar system. Only in the past two decades, after millennia of speculation, have astronomers begun to discover planets around other stars—thousands in fact. Now they are closer than ever to unraveling distant twins of the Earth. In this book, Jayawardhana vividly recounts the stories of the scientists and the remarkable breakthroughs that have ushered in this extraordinary age of exploration. He describes the latest findings--including his own—that are challenging our view of the cosmos and casting new light on the origins and evolution of planets and planetary systems. He reveals how technology is rapidly advancing to support direct observations of Jupiter-like gas giants and super-Earths—rocky planets with several times the mass of our own planet—and how astronomers use biomarkers to seek possible life on other worlds. Strange New Worlds provides an insider's look at the cutting-edge science of today's planet hunters, our prospects for discovering alien life, and the debates and controversies at the forefront of extrasolar-planet research. In a new afterword, Jayawardhana explains some of the most recent developments as we search for the first clues of life on other planets.

Six feature films, the wildly successful television spin-off Star Trek: The Next Generation, endless reruns, videotapes, conventions, a line of best-selling novels, and William Shatner's New York Times best-seller Star Trek Memories have kept the Star Trek spirit alive and well, even 25 years after its cancellation. Now this must-have book for all Trekkers -- which covers every episode of the original series, the pilot, and all six movies -- reveals all the bloopers, continuity errors, plot oversights, equipment malfunctions, and goof-ups that discerning, die-hard fans love to spot, but may have missed. Written especially for all those who find themselves thinking, "Hey, if the transporter is broken, why don't they just use a shuttlecraft?", this nitpicky volume includes Kirk's toupee watch; an examination of the logic of the miniskirted female crew members; number of times Kirk violated the Prime Detective and lots of trivia questions, fun facts, quizzes, and more. Live long and nitpick.
