Astronaut Stories

Mars was supposed to be empty. But something is waiting beneath the red dust. When an astronaut steps onto Mars for the first time, he discovers something that was never meant to be found. A discovery that raises more questions than answers. And a silence that follows him home. Years later, another astronaut is sent to Mars, carrying more than a mission briefing and a destination. She carries the questions no one was willing to answer. But some secrets are better left buried. Until the dust remembers. The Memory of Mars is a story of exploration, mystery, sacrifice, and the strange things that may be waiting beyond what humanity thinks it knows. Stories written in silence, remembered in dust.

Mark Hunter never expected a stray black cat to change his life. Struggling to survive, buried beneath debt, and haunted by the loss of his parents, Mark's future seems all but decided-until a mysterious space program offers him a chance to escape everything. Selected to train as an astronaut, he forms an unlikely bond with Serena Hayes as they endure the most demanding mission of their lives. But beyond the stars, a disaster is waiting. One day, Mark wakes alone in a frozen wasteland with no memory of how he got there. His spacecraft lies shattered beneath the snow, his oxygen is running out, and somewhere beneath the ice is the truth behind the mission that changed everything. A story of hope, friendship, sacrifice, survival, and discovering what it truly means to keep moving forward-even when the universe is against you.

TWENTY-TWO YEARS AFTER APOLLO. Humanity went back to the Moon. This time, it stayed. From the lava tubes beneath Shackleton Crater, Lunar Haven mines helium-3 for a power-hungry Earth. Alex Harlan has six months to double the yield, and one promise to keep to his wife and sons in Texas: come home. But the ground won't settle. The base seismologist says the tremors look like something charging. A French research team answers only to Paris. And nobody will say what goes on in Bay 4. On October 24, 1995, the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth - and Alex falls through the floor of Sverdrup Crater. There is no impact. He wakes in a place no survey ever found, under a sky made of other lands. Five months later, a voice on the base radio asks if somebody can come and get him. It is Alex Harlan's voice. His family is about to get him back. They came to the Moon to take what it had. No one asked what it takes in return.

This book tells the story of Adam, a widowed astronaut who had to raise his son on his own.

Along this journey, he must confront loneliness, grief over his wife's death, and a strained relationship with his son.
