Mission One (Titan Chronicles)
<b>Titan.</b> Sixth moon of Saturn. A gleaming jewel of natural resources, ripe for harvesting by the first private space company to stake a claim. <br><br>Diamond Aerospace launches a ship with an experimental engine that will get a crew to Titan in five months. Their mission is to lay the groundwork for a permanent orbital research station, one that will be the future base of operations for activity on that distant moon. <br><br>Shortly after launch, a devastating malfunction forces the crew to make a choice: continue to Titan, or go back home. As the truth about their mission unravels, one thing is clear: someone on Earth knew about the system flaw and covered it up. <br><br>Between the critical situation in space and the corporate politics on Earth, Humanity's first voyage beyond Mars quickly turns into a relentless struggle for survival. <br><br>Yet surviving the journey isn't the crew's only concern. Even if they make it to Titan, they will face another problem: <br><br><i>Something</i> is already there.
