Journey's End Ron Mueller

Two hundred twenty million years ago, the now barren 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. Then 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 being sent up in rapidly built rockets and that 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 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 and 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..
