The Afronauts

It is the Year 2056. We have succesfully landed our spaceship on Mars. My name is James Brody and I am the first manto set foot on marsian soil. Or so we thought.

The Zambian Mars Program in the 1960's was ridiculed by many and was dismissed as a failure by all major nations of earth.     Edward Makuka Nkoloso, the initiator of the Zambian space program found invaluable alien technology in Zambia and started the Zambian space academy. Unbeknownest to the world, he managed to send 50 People and 2 cats, amongst others a 17 year old trained space girl and a trained space pastor to mars. He died in 1989, with only him and the colonists knowing, that he had beat the US and the USSR in the space race.

In the year 2058 the thought to be first people landed on Mars, just to later discover a Zambian Flag and an extensive underground colony.

This is a passion project and I write this book just for fun. This book is based on real events. If you believe me or not, there really was a man named  Edward Makuka Nkoloso who started the martian space program in Zambie in the 1960's. His Plan was to send 2 space cats, a trained 17 year old space girl and a space missionaire to mars. He espiecially told the missionairy to not force the christian faith on the mars people if they didnt want to convert. His rocket was some kind of oil barrel.  Please google it up. The story of this man really made me want to see a world, in which Zambia landed and colonized mars before all others and  a world in which  Edward Makuka Nkoloso dreams came true.
