Description

Savitar SynopsisJourney's EndA small black hole devastates MarsSavitarTwo hundred twenty-five million years later the small black hole threatens EarthConfluenceEarth has been saved and the discovery of the Martian achievements follows. SavitarThe Solar System's two hundred twenty-million-year journey around the edge of the milky way was bringing it back to an encounter that had previously wiped out the Martian civilization. This time the Earth was in the cross hairs. Zackary Milton, a PhD in Astronomical History, and his professor now his partner Dr. Craig Garrity discover the small blackhole that will interact with the Solar system and likely devastate Earth Zack envisions a way to capture and move it out of Earths path. Craig's close relationship to the newly elected US president gets the program to protect the planet launched and gets Zack put in charge of the effort to capture and move the blackhole. The effort is globally supported but various factions want control of the gigantic space going vessel named Savitar by Zack. An assassination attempt is made on Zack while he prepares to get the Savitar on its journey. He is saved by his most loyal personal guard, Janet. She has sworn that she will keep him safe. The Savitar and its crew of four thousand depart earth. They become aware that their path will take them too close to the Moon and will most likely tear the Savitar apart. Zack and his crew overcome that first threat and become sensitive to other potential ways that the Savitar may be sabotaged. They isolate the Savitar from any computer connection with Earth and take complete internal control. Subsequent events, including a second assassination attempt on Zack causes a complete reassessment of all control systems. Each barrier is overcome with the teamwork of the crew. The Savitar continues to be built as it travels on its multi-year voyage out to intercept and capture the blackhole. How the Savitar captures and contains the black hole is significantly changed from the original plans made on Earth. This change exposes and circumvents a number of preplanned sabotage actions by various parties on Earth. The economic powers on Earth have all designed new, fast spaceships and plan to take control of the Savitar. Craig still on Earth has convinced the US president that Zack is prepared and has the Savitar capable to defend itself against all threats. The US sends out a contingent with only thirty commandos and a group of Scientists renowned in their fields of expertise. Zack prepares for the confrontation with the approaching space vessels in a manner that he hopes will prevent a shooting confrontation. He is set up to do so if necessary and feels certain his defense system is superior to anything he will face. The approach and the friendly demonstration of the Savitar's superior capability allows the Savitar to set itself up as the neutral Switzerland of space. The environment on the Savitar takes on a new and positive way of life. Janet, his loyal protector, and his true soul mate get married on a simulated Hawaiian beach. She had always dreamt of doing that on Earth.
