It’s Pure Science Fiction

Where are the Stars?


From  my Novella: The Blue Marble

July 18, 1969 – Outer Space

The three NASA astronauts had been sleeping for several hours as Apollo 11 moved through the vacuum of space at the incredible speed of 25,000 miles per hour.

Michael Collins opened his eyes and was still surprised that none of the crew had been able to see visible starlight outside the capsule’s windows since they had left Low Earth Orbit.

The Apollo 11 crew had heard stories from other Apollo Astronauts that had gone beyond Low Earth Orbit that the stars weren’t visible in outer space. Still, until Michael Collins had witnessed the phenomenon with his own eyes, it had been hard for him to believe.

Outer space looked like a sea of blackness, not what Collins or his crewmates had expected.

While they orbited the Earth earlier in the mission, the stars were prominent. From that point forward, no starlight or anything else was visible other than the Earth’s Moon. The space capsule had been the best place in the universe to see stars, nebulae, and other celestial bodies. All of it disappeared, however, the instant they fired the external engines to push into outer space.

“What’s the matter, Mike?” Buzz Aldrin asked. He noticed Collins looking out one of the space capsule’s windows.

Collins turned to look at Aldrin before answering. “It’s just not what I expected,” he replied. “Is it what you expected?”

Aldrin looked out the capsule window Collins had been staring through moments earlier. “Honestly, Mike, it’s not like anything I ever imagined. I can’t figure it out either.”

The Blue Marble  – A Novella  By John Reizer


The Blue Marble (Novella)

Available on Kindle

“The Blue Marble delivers some rather entertaining reading, the action sequences are reasonably well-detailed, and the overall story arc creates enough suspense for one to wonder if there is a sequel somewhere in the works. This is talented storytelling on a completely different level.”

    “Star light Star bright

    The first star I see tonight

    I wish I may, I wish I might

    Have the wish I wish tonight.”

    I think Buzz Aldrin needs to get his eyes checked, John. Or there are shades on that camera lens. 😎

    (Or maybe he’s just lying, and the whole thing is a charade!) 🤣
