Asteroid Fever
Eco-Science-Fiction Story written in a surrealistic writing style

When writing about the near future, what appears to be fictional science can become true, which can turn a science fiction story into a fictional science story.

This is a very near future fictional green story that looks at how Earth might technologically respond to the climate that seemingly changed overnight. It is based on the same old same old response that we generally have to anything and everything, make the response complex, profit oriented, and symptom oriented.

There are winners and losers, heroes and villains. It is not the perfect solution, far from from it, but it does try to guess what we might be facing in the future.

The current blurb, while not a work of art, is itself, a flight of fancy. The writing style breaks most of the current grammatical rules, which looks odd at first, does fit into the changing world we now find ourselves.

Today you can experience what tomorrow will be like, where trading in bad food can end a presidency, or a body can end up in an oversized brightly colored motorized vitamin capsule with internally generated food and energy sources.

Overnight the space dust mining industry transformed the world into a free energy metropolis with flying cars and high speed elevated trains, as common as roadways, crisscrossing the land everywhere.

Follow reporters as they hilariously blend humdrum soap operas, gritty real life news, and household product commercials into showcase presentations, while disgruntled workmen chip out huge underground water reservoirs on the Moon and Mars.

Meet Merackle, the crazy industrialist, whose miracle self-sealing foam launched space habitation by auto sealing leaks, blocking space junk, and creating instantly inflatable orbiting buildings.

Chose a new life by joining the growing legions of Sippers, who sip Martian microbes bathed in synthetic insect plasma, hoping for immortality. That is, if they don’t die first. Or practice traditional nanotech medicine, by consuming your mandatory daily dosage of vaccines and drugs blended into restaurant quality daily meals, made from recycled garbage by frementators. Relive the past through the eyes of sight shifter detectives as they search through time to solve crimes.

Watch it all come to a screeching halt, as President Gredloy’s attempts to corral free space, from a penthouse in the fabulous orbiting Elevator City, by fighting imaginary space aliens, collides head on with the Queen Of Sippers and her team of alien test subjects’ dreams, of escaping Earth and exploring the universe.

Any resemblance to real people was purely coincidental.
