The Ice Moon Explorer
Navin Weeraratne
An astronaut scientist studying Saturn's moons, learns that all is not as it seems. A short story about science, exploration, and life elsewhere in our solar system." Enceladus is the most accessible habitable zone … All you really have to do is land on the surface, look up and stick your tongue out." - Carolyn Porco, Cassini Imaging Science Team
A planetary scientist becomes convinced her mission’s AI is hiding critical data from her. She must reach out to the other expedition scientists scattered across Saturn’s moons – but will the AI allow it? And is it really the problem, or is actually trying to protect her?
A hard science story of an international expedition to study the subsurface ocean life of Enceladus, and resurrect its natural history in aquariums using biological samples collected from the geyser ejecta, populating Saturn’s E-Ring.
Themes this story looks at are:
-Long duration space missions
-Astrobiology
-Subsurface ocean life, on ice moons such as Enceladus
-The mental strain of isolation on astronauts
-Hydrothermal vent biology
A story for hard science fiction and space exploration fans.
