By sharing the burden of decision-making, they've started to heal the wounded planet.īut now corporations, nation-states, and networks all vie to represent humanity to these powerful new beings, and if any one accepts the aliens' offer, Earth may be lost. Decades ago, they rose up to exile the last corporations to a few artificial islands, escape the dominance of nation-states, and reorganize humanity around the hope of keeping their world liveable. The watershed networks aren't ready to give up on Earth.
And if humanity doesn't agree, they may need to be saved by force. These aliens have crossed the galaxy to save humanity, convinced that the people of Earth must leave their ecologically-ravaged planet behind and join them among the stars. She heads out to check what she expects to be a false alarm-and stumbles upon the first alien visitors to Earth. On a warm March night in 2083, Judy Wallach-Stevens wakes to a warning of unknown pollutants in the Chesapeake Bay.
