Science Fiction ebook
by Valerian Mendonça
The year 2025 ‘Shooting Star’ is on its first ever intergalactic expedition. Two years later, the spacecraft encounters a black hole and the galactic flux causes a major malfunction and it loses contact with the base station.
With all controls lost, it is free floating – aimless, perhaps directed by the forces of the Universe.
Until eventually, one day, the craft along with the crew and passengers are rescued by the inhabitants of a distant planet, Carbonium, more than 1500 light years away, beyond the Orion nebula.
Read on and be a part of the survivors’ exciting discovery of a new life form and their amazing medical science. Would they ever return to planet Earth? Find out!

Chandrayaan-2: India leaps for Moon, all eyes on Sept landing
Under an overcast sky at the Sriharikota spaceport on Monday, India took a giant leap to the Moon.
Indian Space Research Organisation's GSLR-MKIII carrying Chadrayaan-2 lifted off from Sriharikota at 2:43 pm and 17 minutes later, injected into a geostationary transfer orbit the lunar craft comprising an orbiter and a rover. It is expected to make a soft-landing on Moon at 2:58 am on September 7, making India only the fourth nation after the US, Russia and China - to achieve such a feat.
An estimated one million people gathered on the beaches of central Florida to witness first-hand the launch of Apollo 11, while more than 500 million people around the world watched the event live on television. Officially named as a crew just six months earlier, Commander Neil A. Armstrong, Lunar Module Pilot (LMP) Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin, and Command Module Pilot (CMP) Michael Collins were prepared to undertake the historic mission. Previous Apollo crews had tested the spacecraft in Earth orbit and around the Moon, and only two months earlier, Apollo 10 had completed a dress rehearsal to sort out all the unknowns for the lunar landing. Now it was time to attempt the landing itself.

Valerian is an evangelist and proselytiser of nature consonant health care practice and an avid sci-fi lover. He holds that science fiction stories have a remarkable ability to become a reality in its time.
Consider the books “The Earth To The Moon” and “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” by Jules Verne both the moon landing and the submarine became a reality. The gadgets and devices used in ‘Star Trek’ teleserials have been a precursor to reality.
Valerian is a futurist. And his maiden e-book ‘The Future Was Always Here!’ is an expression of a possibility. The possibility of travelling and living on a planet in another galaxy, in an environment the inhabitants, breathe in carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen while the plants require the exhaled oxygen to survive. Exactly opposite of what we do here on Earth and the amazing medicine science that exists there.
