Now during David experiences he encounters some alien life forms some friendly some not so friendly through out the universe. And David also experiences the space battle of all battles and saves Earth and their new friends and lives to tell about it. We start our story in the year 2048 when Earth has an aggressive space program. They have just completed two Large Mobile Base station called Lunar Base 1,2, and are almost finished with the third Base station called Lunar Base 3. Now these are three huge Base stations. They are two miles long and one mile in diameter. They also have one very big surprise. They all three split into three independent working sections. And all three sections have lasers and rockets and their own engine. They also have shields that are a liquid that turns into a solid mass as hard as 4 inches of steel when exposed to the cold of space. They also have a very elaborate and high tech interior. They have a swimming pool, which is also their water reservoir. They also have a couple of lounges were everyone goes for fun. Now on their missions they encounter some new friends called the Powleens. They are advanced and they are also very friendly and eventually they join Earth and save Earth together. The Powleens are very tall about seven feet to eight feet on average their legs and arms and torso are elongated also their neck. But they are humanoid and angels from heaven to Earth. When the powleens arch enemy the Arcons find them it´s not to good for Earth because earth gets caught in the middle. Well one thing leads to another and before you know it, it’s all out space battle for the existince of Earth. Earth teams up with the powleens and the rest is history of coarse you have to read the book to find out what happens.
