The probe was coming back from Proxima Centauri today, the first ever return trip to another solar system. George and Mattheus are jumping up and down in childish joy. They are the lucky scientists to open the sample sample of exoplanet dirt. What they find is highly unexpected.
You can listen to the story below, or read the rewritten version over at my Steemit-account. The original story you can find here: Return from Proxima B

Thank you! I wrote it over a year ago, and it felt good to go over it again. I threw in some more dialogue, I like it better like this 🙂

It is, and I learn a lot from it. Especially with the reading out loud and editing- thing. I see clearer what’s necessary and what’s not.

What a way to go! And what a way to be remembered. I felt badly for those guys.

Anything for fame… 😀 I guess even George and Mattheus had their limits, though.

Thank you. I rewrote the story before making the audio, so I guess the old version is more of a draft now. Happy you liked it 🙂
