About this ebook

Dr. Noyle Iaam, one of our most brilliant authorities in android logic systems, excels in his ability to look at a process and improve on its efficiency or effectiveness. With our home world dying from the overmining of its resources, he feels android mining could be dramatically improved to a higher yield. His successes to make androids learn as they go and increase their knowledge base to independent, sentient thinking is about to expand a workforce to a planetary level. Dr. Uriel Resiw, as his young assistant, brings with her a unique line of problem solving that may be just what he needs, but Dr. Sypher, also one of his colleagues, has his own ideas over those of Dr. Iaam and is determined to show them all. Noyle feels the androids should control their own will to think. Sypher wants to control their will to think.

Greed can feed on the need for recognition of ones ability, especially if one feels they have been passed over. As the androids evolve and begin to create unexpected problems, so do the conflicts of Dr. Sypher. The fight to save their home world may become a fight for their very lives.

    INTRODUCTION

    History tells us a story. Archaeology lends credence to those stories. Scientific evaluations use those archaeological findings to form educated opinions in an attempt to attain a more in-depth understanding of that story. But sometimes those evaluations must bridge a gap of the unknown or unproven with a high probability based on what we know. Sometimes those probabilities are proven later to be in error. Archaeologists proved history about the dinosaurs to be fact. In 1898, it was proven with high probability that a skull found belonged to the remains of a previously discovered skeleton, producing enough of the creature to tell the story of its past life. The brontosaurus came to life in our history books. But it was over seventy years later when it was proven that the body and skull were from two different creatures. The history books had to be changed.

    History tells us the story from archaeological finds that humans evolved from a more primitive origin much as an ape. Theology tells us that God created us and that it was not the result of eons of adaptation and mutation. Scientists and archaeologists have previously thought that if they take the earliest fossilized and skeletal discoveries of primitive apes and study their evolutionary progression forward and then if our current existence is backtracked, they should meet somewhere in the middle. This method states that there is a high probability based on what we know as factual, with the small exception of a gap known as the missing link.

    What if the ancestral chain of the evolution for primitive ape and the chain for primitive man were two completely different chains? Similar, but completely different. Biblical history tells the story, In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. History tells us of the planets and that, in fact, our world was not flat with demons and sea monsters waiting at the ends to destroy and devour wayfaring ships, and since that discovery, we have found that our planet is one of many in the great vastness of a universe. Yet God created the heavens and the earth was recorded into our prehistory when it was only in man’s later history through astronomical discoveries that he proved the presence of other planets. It was then that names such as Earth, Mars, Venus, and the others were given them based on beliefs through mythological folklore. What if man’s recorded translation of the history, as told by word of mouth, being a high probability based on what we knew, was in error? How can the word earth have been correctly used when the very existence of that word as an astronomical discovery would not be made for thousands of years yet to follow? What if the actual word may have been one or more for the term the world we live on or this place we call home? Then perhaps, as was the fate of the brontosaurus, we are attempting to connect two chains of evolution with a link that may have never existed. What if God created man somewhere other than Earth? Then both conflicting philosophies of theology and those for the origins of man can be seen as correct. Current ape evolved from a more primitive ape origin, and current man evolved from a more primitive origin as well, and then it might be said that man’s ancestry can only be traced as far back as to the time the first footprint in the sand was found. Many theories can now come into the light once the barrier of the missing link is removed from the formula. Was man created at that time and did he begin his life here on Earth at that developed stage, or did he migrate, or even possibly, was he transplanted from one of those other planets suspected to sustain or have sustained life at one time? When then becomes no longer the focal point as much as where he began.

    CHAPTER ONE

    In the Beginning

    It’s been said that in order for anything to survive, it must first be able to evolve. It could be from the smallest of the amoebas, being the single cell that duplicates itself, or the insect over its thousands of generations or even to the more complex life-forms such as ourselves. Even today’s latest inventions, thoughts and ideas are constantly improved upon and updated. They too must evolve. History tells us that evolution is an important part of all life if it is to survive. So it seems only normal that as we evolve, so do we modify our ways of life and living to assure our survival.

    Our own home world, the planet Uribin of the Rehto Ralos System, orbits the blue star L-OS and exists in a dimension other than the three known dimensions of our ancestors. We’re explorers in search for the knowledge of new intelligent species or races and for new discoveries in the areas of the sciences for advancements to our own cultural base. Of the many identified species of our ancestors’ explorations, we are of the Cilegna race and for several hundred thousand generations have been colonizing throughout our known universe. It was the way of our forefathers and those before them to continually expand as our population grew. Our exploration ships are of multigenerational design, and our mission is the ongoing exploration and colonization to sustain our race. It was this long-term interdimensional existence that was found to be the factor in reducing our exposure to the solar radiation and gravitational forces that control the body’s degeneration. It’s this long-term removal from those exposures that contribute to our longevity. Our cells no longer degenerate according to those forces, and aging has virtually ceased. The passing of time is now only measured by the aging of those we study. Uribin is a colony of those ancestors, and since our lifespan far exceeds any species we have yet to discover, we have developed an efficient network of communication that allows us to pass forward our accumulative knowledge throughout our race and even unto the other worlds we occupy. Only in our historical archives is the origin of our ancestors recorded. As our voyages of exploration take us from system to system, time has little meaning, as day and night is determined by the solar day each planet experiences, and their various rotations and orbits have been found to be many. Originally we thought that the shortest distance between the point of origin and a point of destination was the path of a straight line. Once we discovered the concept of travel through the interdimensional planes, that entire formula became almost completely irrelevant. We found that the point of origin, when applied to an interdimensional application, can be aligned with the destination point. To go from one point to another known location is no more effort than passing through a door entryway from one room to the next. Our expanded exploration of the universe now was to map locations to extend our abilities to move about as desired. With the discovery of stable, naturally occurring interdimensional vortexes or wormholes, our range of travel has increased exponentially. We, and now for uncounted generations, exist in a time when time doesn’t exit. There is no difference between what is now, that which was before, or what is to come. There is only existence, and the place is not so much a place as a dimension where location and space has little relevance or reference. It’s only here where the mind’s quest for a challenge has become one with the constant unknowns of what the sciences have yet to discover or to improve upon, and as we were about to learn, perhaps some areas should be left alone.

    One of these vortexes, and the closest to Uribin, happened to be on the distant end of our home planet’s elliptical orbit from our sun. Periodically it would align with another solar system, and our orbit would allow our planet to slip in at one outer edge of the vortex opening and share existence with that one until our orbit reached the other outer edge and would return wholly to our own system. It was from this shared solar system that the following chronicles take place.

    Dr. Noyle L. Iaam has always excelled in his fields of the what-ifs. He’s always been able to see an object, a process, or an idea and then see how to improve on it. To make it better, more useful, more efficient, or more effective or to see more applications for it. Most currently, he’s one of the foremost authorities in the field of positronics and nanotechnologies. His driving force lately has been to take the cybernetic and positronic logical brain research to a new level. He had already successfully infused nanotechnologies with an organic polymerized material to use like an outer skin, much like real epidermal skin of ours, to cover the frame of his artificial android frames. This skin allows for a more realistic texturing, coloring, and flexibility, as well as acceptance in appearance to those of us around them. His design for this layer not only gave it a soft and warm feel to the touch by heat transference but the positronic networking of the neural sensory receivers at the molecular level connected the logic brain with the data transferred from those sensors so it can feel. The nanotechnology had also been so engineered that it even allows it to regenerate itself, once damaged, back to its original form. It could heal itself. From the outside, his creation is undistinguishable from the real counterpart being its design for the image was such as to look as if a normal person in appearance unlike the earlier models, at least on the outside. On the inside, the data processing of the positronic logic module, the brain, had a long ways to go. It’s the inside that he’s now refining. The Hyperpositronic
