Enceladus Contact

A hard sci-fi story which begins on Saturn's icy moon Enceladus(note: pronounced with a soft 'c')—although later other places are visited. Enceladus is one of only two worlds in the Solar System, apart from Earth, which shows strong indications of being able to support life (the other being Jupiter's moon Europa).

The mission which has landed on the moon to investigate this possibility is in for some surprises. Maybe there is alien life here - but is it native to Enceladus or has it come from elsewhere?

This is a story very much under development and I am still undecided as to how the plot will shape out. Follow it to find out!

October 2025: new material and a new plot twist added.
