"These solar flares are unlike anything we've ever seen before. They're increasing in frequency and intensity, and if we don't act soon, Earth will be destroyed."

"They landed in California, in Sequoia National Park. See Blake over there,” Jasmin looked to where a group where locked in a heated discussion in the large board room. “They are deciding what to do. Houston is involved and NASA, and the military, and everyone, really.” “Hold on! This is my discovery!” Jasmin shouted. Why had they left her sleeping? She had spotted the aliens first.

As end-of-the-world scenarios go, an apocalyptic collision with an asteroid or comet is the new kid on the block, gaining respectability only in the last decade of the 20th century with the realization that the dinosaurs were wiped out by just such an impact. Now the science community is making up for lost time, with worldwide efforts to track the thousands of potentially hazardous near-Earth objects and plans for high-tech hardware that could deflect an incoming object from a collision course.

The American Civil War had ended, and the members of the American Gun Club tried to think of something else to interest them. At last they came up with the extraordinary idea of building the greatest cannon the world had ever seen and using it to launch a man-made "bullet" to the moon!

The sounding of a truce brought a sense of peace to Brisbane 5 and the rest of the known galaxies. It was understood throughout the neighboring solar systems that hostilities could erupt again if a sneeze were misunderstood, or a toe stepped on inadvertently.
