Helios on the Moon Jim Mcpherson

Scientists first detect signals coming from somewhere out in space in early 1978. Their excitement is palpable. Finally they have proof humanity isn't alone in the cosmos. Then, about a month after their initial detection, the source is pinpointed. Elation immediately gives way to near-panic. The beams are coming from the Earth's moon! In an extraordinary session of the Security Council, the United Nations agree to meet this off-worldly intrusion aggressively. The result, the UNES Liberty, is already in moon orbit when, on the Thirtieth of November 1980, the launching of the Cosmic Express takes place on Centauri Island. At the same time, on the far off planetary Utopia of New Weir, three Great Goddess preside over the latest session of the Courtroom of the Visionary. Meanwhile, on the Inner Earth of Sedon's Head, the Hidden Continent's most revered Death Gods rededicate themselves to reuniting their fragmented family, devils almost to a one. The Dual Entities have returned to their own timeline determined to make life for everyone not just vastly better but perfect. Oh, oh.
