About this listen
Deep space holds secrets…
…and one astronomer for NASA has found a big one.
But it's not what she thinks.
Dr. Melody Adams, a physicist at the Gemini North Observatory, was studying Pluto in the telescope data, and it struck her as odd. The numbers didn't make sense. Could there be an extraterrestrial object in our solar system?
She followed protocol.
The scientific community didn't believe her.
And before she knew what happened, her career was over.
The day that changed Melody's life was like any other over the previous two years. She'd found she had a gift for writing, and her career as an author had almost healed the pain of losing her job. When the Secret Service rang her bell, everything changed.
Something was nearing Saturn…
…and it was slowing down.
Had she been right about the object?
You'll love this hard science fiction novel because Melody is about to find out that everything she knew about space and time was wrong.

No one has ever ventured deeper into space than the four astronauts of Shepherd-1. The aim of their mission is to witness the creation of the cosmos. Using the sun as a lens, they are to align a flock of probes in such a way that the moment of the Big Bang becomes visible. For astronomer Christine, this is a dream come true. So she is bitterly disappointed when the first images are obscured by a kind of veil that prevents any insight. She works obsessively to find a solution, but when she finally succeeds in lifting the veil, she sees something that would have been better kept hidden...

Story
No one has ever ventured deeper into space than the four astronauts of Shepherd-1. The aim of their mission is to witness the creation of the cosmos. Using the sun as a lens, they are to align a flock of probes in such a way that the moment of the Big Bang becomes visible. For astronomer Christine, this is a dream come true. So she is bitterly disappointed when the first images are obscured by a kind of veil that prevents any insight. She works obsessively to find a solution, but when she finally succeeds in lifting the veil, she sees something that would have been better kept hidden...

Good story, wish it went further
This story started a little slow and I was unsure if I would like it. But it clicked and was worth the read. Fascinating concept and one not too far off reality. Only part that was not realistic was the stupidity with which the crew entered Serenity. People that undisciplined would never have been chosen for the mission.

Loved this book
I listened to the audible version of this book, and it has been my favorite hard science fiction novel to date. I have read or listened to only a handful of such novels in my life. I heartily recommend this. I feel the other Audible reviews unfairly and unjustly rate this book.

Slightly predictable at times but entertaining read
I enjoyed it and it is my first time hearing the narrator do a book she did good, some of the things that happened were pretty predictable, but overall, I really enjoyed it

Thought provoking
Interesting read. Great idea and loved how the story unfolded. The end felt a bit rushed after the long wait to uncover the mystery of The Object. But I really enjoyed this book.

excellent performance!
A solid story matched by a wonderful performance. I loved the use of current discovery to fashion this "what-if" fiction.

Just the best
wonderfully entertaining in all aspects. A great story theme written in a way to keep the reader interested throughout. A sensational imagination connected to expert knowledge of the subject.
Maybe the best SFi book I've ever rea and I've read thousands.

Chick book. Couldn't finish it.
More about emotions than hard science. Soap opera feel. Thought it be like to Arthur c Clark's Rama. Chapter four and The Object is barely mentioned.

umpteen times.
the only problem I have with this story, besides the fact that it's a little slow, is that the author insists on using the phrase "umpteen times",... well, umpteen times. lol bad editing I guess. the story is fine though.
