This time the Earth was in the cross hairs.Zackary Milton, a PhD in Astronomical History, and his professor now his partner Dr. Craig Garrity discover the small blackhole that will interact with the Solar system and likely devastate EarthZack envisions a way to capture and move it out of Earths path.Craig's close relationship to the newly elected US president gets the program to protect the planet launched and gets Zack put in charge of the effort to capture and move the blackhole.The effort is globally supported but various factions want control of the gigantic space going vessel named Savitar by Zack.An assassination attempt is made on Zack while he prepares to get the Savitar on its journey. He is saved by his most loyal personal guard, Janet. She has sworn that she will keep him safe.The Savitar and its crew of four thousand depart earth. They become aware that their path will take them too close to the Moon and will most likely tear the Savitar apart.Zack and his crew overcome that first threat and become sensitive to other potential ways that the Savitar may be sabotaged.They isolate the Savitar from any computer connection with Earth and take complete internal control.Subsequent events, including a second assassination attempt on Zack causes a complete reassessment of all control systems.Each barrier is overcome with the teamwork of the crew.The Savitar continues to be built as it travels on its multi-year voyage out to intercept and capture the blackhole.How the Savitar captures and contains the black hole is significantly changed from the original plans made on Earth. This change exposes and circumvents a number of preplanned sabotage actions by various parties on Earth.The economic powers on Earth have all designed new, fast spaceships and plan to take control of the Savitar. Craig still on Earth has convinced the US president that Zack is prepared and has the Savitar capable to defend itself against all threats. The US sends out a contingent with only thirty commandos and a group of Scientists renowned in their fields of expertise.Zack prepares for the confrontation with the approaching space vessels in a manner that he hopes will prevent a shooting confrontation. He is set up to do so if necessary and feels certain his defense system is superior to anything he will face.The approach and the friendly demonstration of the Savitar's superior capability allows the Savitar to set itself up as the neutral Switzerland of space.The environment on the Savitar takes on a new and positive way of life.Janet, his loyal protector, and his true soul mate get married on a simulated Hawaiian beach. She had always dreamt of doing that on Earth.

Journey's EndA small black hole devastates MarsSavitarTwo hundred twenty-five million years later the small black hole threatens EarthConfluenceEarth has been saved and the discovery of the Martian achievements follows.ConfluenceThe Savitar now controls the small black hole that threatened the Earth.Scientists discover the presence of an ancient alien presence in the solar system.Zack the first President of the Savitar agrees to investigate this presence as the first official act for the Savitar.The photos of what seemed to be pictures of a city in the mantle of Mars, strange objects in the moons of Jupiter and Saturn presented by Dr. Craig Garrity convince the leadership of the Savitar to take on the mission.Janet's comment on seeing the ring on Titan as "it must be a big dog to have a ring that big to tie the chain to," causes Zack to recognize the ring as the bottom anchor for a space elevator.The Savitar sets its own anchor and establishes a space elevator to the surface of Titan. There a message engraved in the ceramic anchor above a sealed ceramic box captures the imagination of the team.The discovery of what appeared to be a shaft going down into the mantle of Titan convinces everyone that a colony had once been established on Titan.A visit to Mars verifies that the early solar system space travelers were Martians that had suffered a planetary crisis.After deciphering the message left by the departing Martians, Janet wonders if after two-hundred and twenty million years the surviving Martians still existed.She composes and sends a message to where the Martians may have gone. After a long waiting period a simple response saying that they had survived and would soon respond in detail is received.Janet becomes closely tied to a Martian, Nadia, who she learns has written the sad poems of to all those who died on Mars. She names her twins, a boy and a girl, Keren, and Nadia after the two people that were the leaders in saving the Martian population.The Martian's reply that they are glad that there is a three hundred year distance between them and a very talented but also very aggressive human population and who in a short period of human development have out done the two-hundred twenty million years head start that they had.Janet envisions a long distance but close learning relationship with the long-departed Martians.

Journey's EndA small black hole devastates MarsSavitarTwo hundred twenty-five million years later the small black hole threatens EarthConfluenceEarth has been saved and the discovery of the Martian achievements follows.Journey's EndTwo hundred twenty million years ago, the fourth orb teamed with intelligent life.Then it interacted with one of the universes most powerful forces.At the height of her career in astronomy, the youngest director of the fledgling Orbian Astronomy program makes the discovery that an unknown but extremely powerful object is bearing down on her Home Orb.Nadia, an individual driven to excel in her field. Leads in developing the Orbian society in learning about the space surrounding them. She has created a program to track the potential objects that might strike her home Orb.She has made a name for herself in the field of Astronomy but is also famous for her song writing and singing.Then while tracking three potentially threatening objects coming toward the Home Orb, she discovers an unknown force that later gets named the black void. The objects being tracked are pulled in a new direction and then disappear in a flash of light.Her analysis predicts the interaction of her Home Orb and this mysterious force.Life for the Orbian's takes a dramatic redirection. Analysis predicts that the interaction of the black void and the Home Orb will strip the Orb of all surface objects.Nadia leads the effort to save the Orbian society but the best that can be done in the time remaining is to save four thousand of the youngest Orbian's. She is one of the few older Orbians picked to be saved.She promises that she will lead the four thousand beings and she will reestablish the Orbian Society. The target to reestablish the Orbian population is the newly discovered third orb.This beautiful blue Orb that lures them is impossible to reach. High levels of radiation thwarts the attempt to reach it.Nadia leads the Orbians on a colonizing journey out away from the Main Central Orb to where the radiation level is tolerable.After seeding three colonies and discovering a remnant survival group on her home Orb, Nadia comes to the conclusion that the Orbians need to become space faring beings.She gathers them into an ever-growing spaceship that she and the remaining Orbians have continued building and improving while traveling the Grand Orbian System. She prepares them for life as space Orbians.In her final farewell before leaving the Grand Orbian system, she leaves the history of the Orbian society encapsulated in a ceramic time capsule with the hopes that the teaming life she observed on the third orb would someday find it and learn of the beings that had once populated and traveled much of the Grand Orb System.
