A Family of Time

Since the MacMurchaids have accepted that this is their time and their future, they begin by helping others on Mother Earth. They begin by using what they learned over the four hundred fifty-five years of hibernation and Odin's vast memory to aid the people of this time period to recover plants and animals which are going extinct or already have gone extinct.

After doing this, they are taken to a trans-orbital observatory vessel known as the Trans Mars Observatory (TMO) for a tour which was promised by their recently met relative of this time period. Its trajectory keeps it in a continuous orbit around earth and Mars thanks to gravity assistance from each planet plus minor use of the onboard thrusters. Since many of the observatories on earth were destroyed, this vessel has supplied the people within in the solar system with the knowledge of the universe they have been able to acquire.

Not long after arriving on the vessel, things begin to happen. The first of many is the surprise gravity assist from Lunar Sister by her increased gravity. Unfortunately, the vessel has limited fuel and for some reason a main drive thruster was tagged out but not repaired. Are all the incidents they and the vessel's crew are experiencing on the observatory mere coincidences or is there more to these happenings than meets the eye? The MacMurchaids have a mystery to solve and hopefully before people are injured or die. Will their vast knowledge and past experiences help save everyone on board this vessel as they fly through space with the TMO having minimal ways prevent disaster? Read the novel to find out.
