Product Details
- What should one do if they receive a mysterious alien signal from a nearby star system? Well, the smartest thing to do is to go to that star and poke whatever you found there with the stick to see if it is alive—I mean, why even ask such an unnecessary question?In the near future, Earth embarks on a bold mission to investigate a cryptic signal from a nearby star system, launching a state-of-the-art autonomous spaceship, guided by Norman, a powerful quantum AI. A team of programmers behind Norman's sophisticated design creates AI's quantum nous with a singular directive in mind: to protect humanity, even at the cost of its own existence.Or so they thought.As the mission unfolds, a string of alarming system failures aboard the Endeavour sets the stage for the impending disaster. Fear and confusion spread as Norman, the AI designed to safeguard humanity, appears to be the source of the ensuing devastation on Earth, in a series of seemingly unrelated events.While mistrust deepens, the mission reaches a conclusion that reveals a shocking truth. Humanity, vulnerable and unsure, must confront the profound implications of having created an intelligence capable of decisions beyond human understanding. And as if all of that weren't enough, there's also the small matter of a newly discovered alien civilization to consider…To top it all, six Skillingsbollers are being purchased at some point.
