But Sam Forstmann measures his allotted time by a grandfather's clock.



A unique mechanism whose pendulum swings between life and death, a very special clock that keeps a special kind of time.



My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf.
So it stood 90 years on the floor.



It was taller by half than the old man himself though it weighed not a pennyweight more.
Such a long face.



Bunny blake is a public figure.
What she wears, eats, thinks, says is news.



But underneath the glamour, the makeup, the publicity the buildup, the costuming is a flesh-and-blood person,
a beautiful girl about to take a long and bizarre journey.



Oliver Pope, businessman turned killer on a rain-soaked street in the early evening of just another day during just another drive home from the office.
The victim, a kid on a bicycle, lying injured, near death.



But Mr. Pope hasn't time for the victim.
His only concern is for himself.



Oliver Pope, hit-and-run driver, just arrived at a crossroad in his life, and he's chosen the wrong turn.
The hit occurred in the world he knows, but the run will lead him straight into the 4D Dimension.



We have another factor here.
Another problem.



The distance.



Distance.
This system is perhaps away from us.
That's a rough estimate but a good one.



The ship is the ship will have interstellar drive and an antigravity device.
It'll be the fastest man-made object ever conceived, ever brought to life.
It'll go faster than the speed of light.



But in terms of the space you must conquer, it'll be like an ant crawling across the sahara.
In short, commander, your trip to these planetary bodies and back to earth will take approximately
Commander Douglas Stansfield, astronaut, a man about to embark on one of history's longest journeys- and hopefully back again.



This is the beginning, the first step toward man's longest leap into the unknown.



Science has solved the mechanical details, and now it's up to one human being to breathe life into blueprints and computers,
to prove once and for all that man can live half a lifetime in the total void of outer space,
This is earth.
Ahead lies a planetary system.



The vast region in between is

It's a synthesis of humankind history :sanapray:
That makes sense. The clock represents time; the murder represents our decisions and the paths we take; and space symbolises the potential of humanity, how far we have come and how far we can go. That's pretty cool :sanapray:
