Space: The Final Frontier. Exploring space developments and theorizing about how humans fit into the universe.

A Girl of Death and Starlight
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Anyone with a grasp on basic physics or astronomy would be able to tell you that; but the cries of the innocent could defy even the stone law of science.

Musculus Misadventures
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I tried to push the stupid thought out of my mind. Now was not the time for all the trivial blasts of information my mind was so used to spewing. A brief image of my mother fluttered through my mind before I forced myself to open my eyes. They closed again involuntarily as the sound came through my com.link. Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space… Or so they say. They were probably ignorant of the fact that we have com.links built into our suits. His scream was truly deafening.

Look to the Stars
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But if you could, what would it sound like? A blood-curdling yell? An anguished wail? The plaintive cry of a creature in pain, lost and alone?

Attempting the Impossible.
“Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say.” ‘Don’t say that!’ ‘Pfft- Sorry, ahaha, couldn’t help myself.’ Captain Nathan Atherton scoffs at his scientific counterpart’s expense.

Global Climactic Optimum
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Gazing into the endless darkness, Aster thought it ironic that her eyes glossed over spacing out, yet her mind kept wandering into a dream-like state. Not entirely knowing how to calm her nerves, her fingers traced one another from the palm of her hand to the tips of her fingers as if she were scheming ominously. Aster gyrated from the diminutive rectangular window and analyzed the sterile, all-pervading white walls that seemed loud in such an agonizing silence. She knew that any minute that silence would turn into a dry mechanical voice on a recorded loudspeaker initiating how to begin her day.

Finally
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Precisely why Jack thought that space could be her perfect new home. The majority of her relationships have all been ruined by her psychic abilities, or, as she prefers to call them, her "tormentors" anyways.

The Starlet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. If a bear shits in the woods and nobody sees it, did it really happen? If a woman wails in space and nobody’s around to hear it, did she really lose the love of her life?

D[R]YAD: An Odyssey
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. One of our eyespots watches the passage of time in the slapdash simulacrum of binary sunlight shifting over ill-suited living quarters; the other gazes listlessly at the miasma of light on the vidscreen, the speeding sundry stars streaked into opalescent fire. We may not be able to hear the sound waves of an exhalation as it escapes from the body and thins into void; but we see the twisting of the flesh and contorting of the form; we feel the panic of the creature as it faces annihilation; and, among those who share the art of Inspeak, we absorb the final thoughts of the dying.

Ultraviolet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That doesn’t mean I didn’t try. If you had told me two weeks ago that I would be in space or even that aliens existed, I would have laughed. I have always been interested in alien movies or video games, but never in a million years did I think I would personally experience it.

The Word of an Artificial God
Chapter 1 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But, for the first time in his life, Ponticus felt no fear. Despite his status as a stowaway on a military cruiser hurtling towards its destination amongst the great unknown of the cosmos, he was at peace. He knew that under the unprecedented guidance of Maiiyah, all of life’s prodigious mysteries would unravel for him, and armed with that knowledge he need not fear the vacuum of space, or whatever awaits him at his destination.

3081: Hyperlane Blues
In space, nobody can hear you scream. This, of course, only applies if space is still a vacuum. Sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it’s a jelly. A sticky, ship-trapping jelly.

Serenity's Quest
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Except for the Lumarians, of course. The remaining members of their race, few as they were, had been in a high state of distress, after hearing the screams of terror and despair for days.
