The Void

-Transmission - First Contact-




Deep in the boundaries of space, a signal was sent by an unknown sauce. A message in code depleting in time, echoing from a distant star, as our technology has advanced, our satellites dishes point into deep space, to search for the beautiful and sublime.
Since mankind began to look to the stars, to ask the age old question, why are we here ? We have wanted to reach out, to seek other life, so we can connect and see things clear.

Tesla was an idealist, with his notions of a higher power, developing inventions that were decades ahead of his time.
His idea that something watches over us, made him an out cast amongst his peers. As he looked down upon them, from his genius ivory tower.

There was a transmission, a very first contact from a - far, a resonance of light and sound waves; from deep in the voids of time and space.
A signal received by experimental machine, a real scientific wonder, that has been de-bunked, and will never again to be seen.
Up in the atmosphere a metallic knight, encased in black moves across the stratosphere, and shining like a bright shimmering star.


In an expanse of space, worlds collide, as super-novas send vibrations out across the cosmos, towards the human race.
We are a race of explorers that need to go beyond to find out if we are alone, as we search the stars for traces of other life, on worlds similar to our own.
One day we will leave this world, to try and begin a new; building advanced space flight, so we can go beyond where no one has been before. In the name of the human race, the many and the few.


We as a species are in a race to be the first. As countries compete to build inter-space travel; as we strive to re start our quest for glory, to be the best. Before the bubble begins to burst.

Our new focus is a mission of ascension to land the first human on Mars.
Elon Musk aims to be the one to master this conquest. He is an entrepreneur with a
Genius master plan. He sent the first car into space, a Tesla Roadster, and named it project Space X Star man
