First edition 2018 Printed in TAIWAN AND THE LONELY WAR WORDS MICHAEL TERRACCIANO ART GARTH GRAHAM Sample file Space is pretty hecking cool, isn’t it? I’m a fantasy writer and I have been ever since the Great Genre War in which I lost six friends at the Battle of Frodo’s Baggins, but before I was into The Hobbit, I, along with every other young weirdo with a dream of having a better hairstyle than a bowl cut, was into Star Wars. FOREWORD Like way, way the heck in. And don’t get me wrong, like any young-blooded person, I loved lightsabers, battles between good and evil, rescuing princesses, but what I really loved is what no one seems to talk about anymore. The vast, cold emptiness of space is seen alternatively as a horrific void from which nothing escapes and a whole lot of nothing you traverse to get somewhere. But to me, space was a promise. Or a suggestion. Or just a big canvas upon which anything could be scrawled—any planet, any species, any creature you could possibly imagine could be out there on a planet you’ve never heard of in a world you’ve never dreamed of thinking things you couldn’t imagine. To some, I guess, that might seem daunting. Daunting enough that most science fiction likes to put down hard and fast limits and explore the space between those limits (if you’re breaking your fingers on your keyboard writing an angry email about how Star Wars isn’t science fiction, just bear with me), but for me, the unknown was always the coolest part about space and it feels like a few people agree with that. People like the two fine lads who wrote this book you’re about to read. Or at least, I assume you’re about to read it. Maybe you picked it up for other reasons, like to kill a really big spider or to read while you pretend not to notice someone. But you really should read it. Star Power has everything I adore about space: endless worlds with endless characters in endless situations. Federations enforcing order, pirates plying the stars, aliens big and small and also a show about a psychic shirtless detective. But all of those are simply facets of the greater, more important quality of this book. Star Power, in an era that sometimes has too much reality, is a creation of pure imagination. Anything that’s exciting, anything that’s joyful, anything that’s wondrous, Garth and Michael have put in. This book, in its exuberant characters and exciting worlds and optimistic relationships, is two people meeting questions like “why bother” with “what if” and “who cares” with “where to?” Simply put, these two fellows are packed to the brim with joy for what they do. The same joy that you felt when you were a kid watching good fighting evil, the same joy you felt whenSample you looked out the window and wondered what else was out there.file It is fun. It is wondrous. It is a product of utter love. Explore it. Sam Sykes Author of the Bring Down Heaven trilogy, Affinity for Steel and Brave Chef Brianna This is the darkest story we’ve ever told for Star Power. In the years and books leading up to this, we prided ourselves on the comparatively light content of our comic. We often said “Star Power has more action than violence.” It’s based on a quote from Stan Lee when he described his approach to his own work. He believed there was a big difference between action and violence, and that is something I subscribed to when I sat down to write Star Power scripts. I’ve always wanted Star Power to be action-packed instead of violent. Then came this story, and I broke my own rule for the sake of drama. It’s more like I bent my personal rule, because we had been describing the worlds beyond the Millennium Federation for years without ever traveling beyond its borders. The Eighth Wormhole Invasion was “the most devastating war ever fought,” and the shattered worlds left in its wake had never truly recovered. Danica had to be shaken by what she saw, and for that we had to forego action for violence. I think the effect worked because we had avoided gruesome violence for so long. This is the first time we showcased the horror and despair of war, and Danica’s first time witnessing it became our readers’ first time. It’s not something one would expect to see when reading Star Power, and we think the imagery helped our readers share in Danica’s shock. But while this is the darkest story we’ve ever told for Star Power, we’re not going to linger in this darkness. Star Power is a tale of hope and optimism, of compassion and kindness in the face of overwhelming odds. I prefer writing action over violence, but sometimes you have to get out of your comfort zone to grow. I think the story, the comic, and the characters all benefited from this dark journey. -Michael, the writer Sample file FROM THE WRITER.

  • The Summer Sky by Dr
    The Summer Sky by Dr. Whitney Shane, MIRA’s Charles Hitchcock Adams Fellow Fixed Stars Some years ago this column had occasion to discuss planetary nebulae, using the Ring Nebula in Lyra, everyone’s favorite, as an example. The simple morphology of the Ring Nebula makes it ideal for this purpose. It can be explained as a slightly ellipsoidal expanding shell, where the asym- metry is due to a slight anisotropy in the initial expansion velocity. Very few planetary nebulae have the simple structure of the Ring Nebula. In fact, there is a baffling variety in the shapes of these objects. Most of them, however, show symmetry about a plane, which we might identify with the equator of the central star. The expansion seems to take place mainly in the direction of the poles. This could be caused by the presence of a massive ring of material around the equator, which would direct the expansion toward the poles. This ring might have been left over from the giant phase of the star. This agreeable situa- tion came to an abrupt end when Hubble Space Telescope images of planetary nebulae, starting with the Cat’s Eye Nebula (NGC 6543), showed far more com- plex structures than had been previously sus- pected. This complexity, particularly its fine detail, could not be ex- plained by the model of an equatorial ring direct- ing a general expansion toward the poles. Attempts to explain these structures seem to fall into two categories. The presence of a companion star would provide both the dy- namical perturbations and the symmetry plane (in this case the orbital plane) required by the observa- tions.

  • THUBAN the Star Thuban in the Constellation Draco (The Dragon) Was the North Pole Star Some 5,000 Years Ago, When the Egyptians Were Building the Pyramids
    STAR OF THE WEEK: THUBAN The star Thuban in the constellation Draco (the Dragon) was the North Pole Star some 5,000 years ago, when the Egyptians were building the pyramids. Thuban is not a particularly bright star. At magnitude 3.7 and known as alpha draconis it is not even the brightest star in its constellation. What is Thuban’s connection with the pyramids of Egypt? Among the many mysteries surrounding Egypt’s pyramids are the so-called “air shafts” in the Great Pyramid of Giza. These narrow passageways were once thought to serve for ventilation as the The Great Pyramid of Giza, an enduring monument of ancient pyramids were being built. In the 1960s, though, Egypt. Egyptologists believe that it was built as a tomb for fourth dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu around 2560 BC the air shafts were recognized as being aligned with stars or areas of sky as the sky appeared for the pyramids’ builders 5,000 years ago. To this day, the purpose of all these passageways inside the Great Pyramid isn’t clear, although some might have been connected to rituals associated with the king’s ascension to the heavens. Whatever their purpose, the Great Pyramid of Giza reveals that its builders knew the starry skies intimately. They surely knew Thuban was their Pole Star, the point around which the heavens appeared to turn. Various sources claim that Thuban almost exactly pinpointed the position of the north celestial pole in the This diagram shows the so-called air shafts in the Great year 2787 B.C.

  • Dhruva the Ancient Indian Pole Star: Fixity, Rotation and Movement
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 46.1 (2011) 23-39 DHRUVA THE ANCIENT INDIAN POLE STAR: FIXITY, ROTATION AND MOVEMENT R N IYENGAR* (Received 1 February 2010; revised 24 January 2011) Ancient historical layers of Hindu astronomy are explored in this paper with the help of the Purân.as and the Vedic texts. It is found that Dhruva as described in the Brahmân.d.a and the Vis.n.u purân.a was a star located at the tail of a celestial animal figure known as the Úiúumâra or the Dolphin. This constellation, which can be easily recognized as the modern Draco, is described vividly and accurately in the ancient texts. The body parts of the animal figure are made of fourteen stars, the last four of which including Dhruva on the tail are said to never set. The Taittirîya Âran.yaka text of the Kr.s.n.a-yajurveda school which is more ancient than the above Purân.as describes this constellation by the same name and lists fourteen stars the last among them being named Abhaya, equated with Dhruva, at the tail end of the figure. The accented Vedic text Ekâgni-kân.d.a of the same school recommends observation of Dhruva the fixed Pole Star during marriages. The above Vedic texts are more ancient than the Gr.hya-sûtra literature which was the basis for indologists to deny the existence of a fixed North Star during the Vedic period. However the various Purân.ic and Vedic textual evidence studied here for the first time, leads to the conclusion that in India for the Yajurvedic people Thuban (α-Draconis) was Dhruva the Pole Star c 2800 BC.
