The Settler Project

The twenty-first century is halfway through, and governments have lost their appetite for the exploration of space, leaving the field free for private enterprise to get a foothold. There are two main players in the world of space exploration: Space. Inc. and Galactic Travels. Both companies have rockets and orbital craft and take tourists into orbit regularly. There is also a third contender, Dave Elliot, owner of Earth Global, the world's largest multinational with fingers in every pie going. He is quietly developing his infrastructure and vehicles, preparing to make his presence felt on the world stage. Not for him the Earth orbit thing, he is looking at a Mars settlement. Imagine his surprise when he arrives to find Mars already has alien settlers

Join him and his crew in this fast-moving story of man's adaptability and ingenuity.
