Ngemuva kwezingxabano ze-intergalactic ngaphambilini ezilandiswe ku- Ihlathi elimnyama noma esitolimende sokuqala Inkinga yemizimba emithathu, umfelandawonye wangempela wemiphakathi usuthuthukile eplanethi yasendulo uMhlaba.
Ngaphansi kokuvikelwa kobuhlakani obusha obulethwe kolunye uhlangothi lwendawo yonke, abantu basemhlabeni baphenduka ngokuxhuma okukhulu kwempucuko.
Isayensi yabantu izama ukucabanga ngamapharadayimu amasha, ivulekele amathuba angenakuqondakala kuze kube manje futhi asondela kuphakade, ukungafi, ukuxhumana ngokushesha. Umhlaba owaziwa kuze kube yileso sikhathi ubonakala uyisikhala esingasasebenzi okucatshangwa ukuthi umbono waso olandelayo ubonakala kubantu basemhlabeni owanqotshwa ngokuzumayo.
Vele, akubona bonke abantu baseMhlabeni abavumelana nalokhu kuhlanganiswa kwezintshisekelo neTrisolaris. Umbono omusha wokucwaswa kwabokufika ubheka abafokazi njengengozi ...
Bona, iTrisolaris, bakhombisa intando yokuhlanganiswa kwabo kwiplanethi ephethe. Kepha akukho okuhlala kulula kanjalo. Ukungathembani komuntu kuhlala kuvuka ngomqondo wokukholelwa ekutheni yonke inzuzo ihlala ifihla intshisekelo eyisisekelo.
Kulesi sitolimende esisha, unjiniyela uCheng Xin uthola ukugqama okuphelele lapho ebuya ekwenziweni kwakhe kusukela ngekhulu lama-XNUMX, uletha umbono ohlukile wokuthi imicimbi yathuthuka kanjani.
Kwesinye isikhathi okusobala, ubufakazi obungavusa onembeza emsindweni okhangayo weqiniso elincane buyachithwa ukuze kusizakale inzuzo eseduze.
Ukufika esikhathini esizayo kukaCheng Xin kuzogcina kubangele ukungabaza. Ukwazi kwakhe kuxhunyaniswe nesikhathi esikude lapho isayensi ye-avant-garde yesikhathi samanje yayicwiliswe ekutholeni nakwamaphrojekthi we-transcendental.
Yimibono kuphela elethwe esikhathini esedlule futhi yamelwa kwisayensi uqobo yayo ebeka engcupheni ukuthi ubuhlobo buka-Orwellian nobubonakala bunenzuzo phakathi kwempucuko ...
Umagazini odumile waseMelika wezindaba eziqanjiwe uLocus, unikeze umklomelo wokuqala wezincwadi ophethe igama lakhe kule noveli, isiphetho sethrafikhi yesikhathi esizayo egcina ihlangana nezingxabano zaphakade zamandla, inkohlakalo ezinkingeni ezidlula zonke ezithinta impucuko yabantu iplanethi yethu uMhlaba.
