Synopsis "Star Colony"

By the beginning of the twenty-second century, Earth's man-created problems, including overpopulation and climate change caused by global warming, caused Earth's powers to look to the stars for living space. A search began immediately for a likely new home for humanity. It seemed a hopeless task, but after a long and intensive search a planet that was almost a twin of Earth was discovered in a nearby system. After a short exploratory period, colonists were hurriedly recruited, prepared both mentally and physically, and placed in cryogenic pods for the five-year trip. Young Mark Jennings's father and mother, older brother Jeremy, and Jeremy's beautiful fiancee Mary Beth Anderson were among the first group of colonists selected. Mark was finally allowed to be a colony member provided he worked aboard ship and completed his education with curricula uploaded to the ship's computer. The planet looked Earth-like and benign, but when the ship began its journey back to Earth leaving them alone on their new home, the colonists realized that they were five years from home and had little knowledge of what was in store for them. Mark was sure of only two things--he was head over heels in love with Mary Beth Anderson, and that love could never be returned. STAR COLONY is a realistic look at the difficulties inter-galactic colonists could encounter, as well as a romantic tale of a young man's seemingly hopeless love for his brother's fiancee.
