Publisher's Synopsis
This is a story of a young science buff who loses his soul and as the older man, gets it back by being chosen for the most important science experiment in history. He will donate his brain for research into the thing that makes the brain tick - Consciousness.
From inside the 'Think Tank' Hank Piersoll is able to absorb data from all of the most sensitive and penetrating scientific instruments humans have invented. He can feel the data in ways that has never been known before anywhere and the things that he sees will rock your world.
In just a few years from now, using the upgraded Webb Space Telescope, the upgraded Hubble Telescope, the International Space Telescope and even the Super Lepton Collider, he is able to see the origination of the most incredible event since the Big Bang, the 2nd Big Bang. It's coming fast and is wrapping itself in and around our current universe in a very notable way that mimics the code inside every cell in our bodies. What the impacts will be when the 2nd Big Bang arrives in the vicinity of our solar system remains an open question and the world is on notice.
While all of this is going on the Earth is also failing to support life due to all of the pollution that is still ongoing and worsening despite all of our efforts thus far to curb the destruction of our planet. The governing bodies of the world, desperate to do something that might end the coming extinction of all life on Earth, arrive at the 'Final Solution'. Hank and his team are the only group around who can fight it - and they do it with the help of a band of Chechen rebels.
The story ends when the 2nd Big Bang finally arrives, some ten years after the story begins. Jeff Bezos, twenty years older, founder of Amazon, which has become a major part of the new 'Offsets Economy' and inventor of the Blue Enterprise, a new kind of spaceship, plays a major role in bringing the world to a safe landing.
If you are a science buff and you enjoy science fiction that is based on the latest scientific discoveries, this book is for you. We are living at the current time in the most extraordinary challenge for life where it is given by use of its technological achievements, the chance to either create a Utopian society where the planet's resources are managed in ways that supports and sustains all life on the planet for all eternity, or to create a living Hell on Earth where our own exhaust gasses and waste products overwhelms the planet and suffocates us all.
It may require something like the 2nd Big Bang as portrayed in my story to show us all a new way forward, one where we turn away from our own frailties such as greed, hate, racism, nationalism, fascism and all the other 'isms' and head ourselves in the direction of love and respect for ourselves, our species and about all our planet, the mother of us all.
If there is a 2nd Big Bang on the way, it will be predicted by events in this book which are a mere short term projection of events going on currently on this world. In order to avoid total catastrophe for the next generation, I highly recommend that everyone read this book as soon as possible and take the lessons in it to heart. I believe you will be entertained by the events in this book and if you learn something about the universe, along the way, I hope you won't mind too much.
