Earth is a pressure cooker. In the shadow of the World Council, corporate power plays, and clandestine operations, Project Nomad advances one weld, one systems check at a time. Architect of the mission Bernard Hubert-still the lightning rod for humanity's ambitions-and Lisa Hubert navigate CORE's lab politics, security audits, and "SEB" assessments as they push a patchwork miracle of engineering toward the pad.

Earth is a pressure cooker. In the shadow of the World Council, corporate power plays, and clandestine operations, Project Nomad advances one weld, one systems check at a time. Architect of the mission Bernard Hubert-still the lightning rod for humanity's ambitions-and Lisa Hubert navigate CORE's lab politics, security audits, and "SEB" assessments as they push a patchwork miracle of engineering toward the pad. When the Nomad finally clears the atmosphere and threads past Mars into the Belt, the mission's careful calculus fractures: strange signatures, hostile interdictions, and a widening storm between human agendas on Earth and alien deliberations abroad. The Nomad's path drags it into uncharted perils: toward the fate of Mars, the ice plains of Europa, and other waypoints where the wrong choice can get you killed and the right one can change a species' destiny. Each leg of the mission forces the crew to reckon with what the Nomad really carries: not only cryo, fuel, and nanotech, but the burden of proof that humanity deserves a seat at a very old table. Parallel to the ship's odyssey, the galaxy's upper chamber moves: assassins, emissaries, and elders convene in a Conclave whose votes could unmake the Galactic Star Alliance as easily as they once forged it. And in the shadows, Odian Spek and his Creators of Space wait for their moment to strike. Voyage of the Nomad is a hard-science space opera grounded in choices and politics, building from fabrication bays and war boards to first-contact flashpoints, until the only way forward is through.
