Mike Brotherton - Star Dragon
The SS Cygni probe sent back hours of video,
captured by the Biolathe AI, but only a few minutes mattered–the four minutes
that showed a creature made of fire, living , moving, dancing in the plasma
fire of the double star’s accretion disk. A dragon made of star stuff, so alien
that only a human expedition to observe and perhaps capture it, could truly
understand it. It’s a perilous journey into the future, however, for SS Cygni
is 245 light-years from Earth, and even though only two years subjective time
will pass on board the Karamojo, the crew will return to an Earth where five
hundred years have passed.
