Note from the writer:  Africa is entering the space age as a result of global geography, mineral resources, and political imperatives. Human civilization must expand into the solar system to survive. However, other nonhuman economic parties may emerge to stick their claws into Mother earth. See what  happens when galactic aliens meet modern Africans in: "The Chains of Gravity."

NOTE: This is an excerpt from the free E-book.

MANY sleep cycles had passed before Mother located the illicit fleet of bloated space arks, stolen interstellar yachts, hijacked cargo containers and swarming armed escorts. Mother’s eyes were as cold and black as intergalactic space when she ordered, “Dark energy gun crews may commence vaporization of the criminal flotilla.” Immediately, thousands of intelligent beings from dozens of planets throughout the galaxy perished in grim succession as targeted space vehicles and habitats burst like multi-colored soap bubbles releasing blazing clouds of oxygen, methane, hydrogen, and other gases and fluids that formed the artificial environments essential for higher orders of life.
