July 21, 2011 was the final date of NASA's last space exploration flight.
In PART 1 of this fictionalized series of that flight, the crew comes into first contact with alien extraterrestrials who discover the Atlantis space shuttle as they are finishing their last few orbits around Earth.
If earthlings are stunned at this UFO sighting, the aliens are even more stunned. . . Part 2. Expectations went beyond anyone's dreams as the reality of faster than light travel is introduced to humans. However, the reality of extraterrestrial contact it not what they expected. Part 3 of 'Last Shuttle Flight, First Alien Contact' demonstrates the different mindsets of both humans and aliens in this space exploration adventure of a first contact UFO sighting. Being aware of each other has altered the thinking of both. This sequel of a extraterrestrial contact series demonstrates how these two species begin to deal with each other and what their expectations for the future hold.
The big question is, will the Earth survive a second alien expedition. . .
Excerpt
Today was May 2, year 2832 of the old ancient calendar. The one they used to use before it became inconvenient due to all the traveling and emigration out of Earth area.
It was a special occasion. In this present day, the diaries of Stuart Cobey were to be released to the public -- or so it was expected. They had been printed on paper (an electronic copy had long been lost) and were vaulted in a confined space in the old United Nations Space Exploration museum. Cobey was the first human in history to make contact with the aliens in the year 2011, and through this event -- and numerous other citations throughout historical documentation -- had become a legend on Earth as well as in human civilization.
The diaries were locked up many years ago because the political thinking at the time of Cobey’s death, when he had wanted them published, was that it would cause too much mayhem throughout the world considering the current political rivalries among certain powers and other factors outside of Earth. It was finally agreed to by those ‘powers that be’ that three hundred years was a reasonable limit to place on their publication, and then they would be released to the public.
Herbert Camille was given the authority to remove them, read them, edit them for any possible political insensitivity, and then submit them for publishing. He couldn’t wait to get his hands on these diaries. The diaries were to be read only on the premises and then electronic copies would be created for further distribution to various committees.
He was so geared up for this project that he would even sleep there if he had to. A library custodian led him into a library, styled like an ancient one from hundreds of years ago. He was awed. The custodian pointed to the book on a table and said, “There it is; have fun.” She smiled as she left him.
Herbert sat down at the table in front of the book, placed some thin-layered gloves on his hands to protect the document, turned the cover over, and then very cautiously . . . the first page.
He began to read:
