Best Science Fiction Book Series
It doesn't take a rocket science to know how gargantuan and unlimited our galaxy really is whenever presented by the beauties of imagination. Sci-fi writers like Arthur C. Clarke and George R.R. Martin, celestial beings of writing in their own rights, have helped to broaden our literary scope on scientific fantasy. They, however, are only two of many authors whose series of books have been considered must reads.

She Is Everything
The office is empty this time of day, when everyone goes to lunch and the phones go straight to voicemail. She is still here, however. She eats a peanut butter and honey sandwich at this hour every day from behind her executive desk. She'd acquired this job a few years ago, and how she'd acquired it, well that'd been the speculation of her employees ever since, but they didn't know the truth, and it never bothered her much. She was more powerful than they could ever imagine, and their petty gossip was nothing for her to bat an eyelash over.

Hester Hill Phenomena
The spot of land, in East Texas, the Paradise in Pines, called "Hester Hill" had been in the Hester family for over a hundred years. Rumor had it there was an old graveyard somewhere on the place, due to the fact of the American and Indian War. No one had ever found it, though, but it sure made for a good story. Now, there has always been a lot of talk about "aliens from Outer Space" and "Extraterresterials," as some called them. Well, it's true. They do exist. But humans never got to see them, because there was something about Hester Hill that attracted aliens — and once they landed they were never seen or heard from (their home planet) again. This is the first in a chronicle of stories of how Hester Hill inhabitants unknowingly used their resources and saved the Earth from possible invasion!

'Doctor Who': "Twice Upon A Time" Review. Top Story - December 2017.
Warning: Potential spoilers for the episode below. “It's the end but the moment has been prepared for.” Those words spoken by Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor on the brink of his regeneration more than three decades ago could also be applied to this year's Christmas special. It's safe to say expectations were high thanks to the announcement of Peter Capaldi exiting the series alongside showrunner Steven Moffat, Jodie Whittaker taking over as the first female Doctor, and then the return of David Bradley playing the role of the very First Doctor (Bradley had previously played actor William Hartnell, who originated the role, in 2013's "An Adventure In Space And Time"). So did "Twice Upon A Time" live up to those expectations or did it crash and burn?

NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory Wants to Welcome You to the Center of the Universe
On the floor of the Spaceflight Operations Facility at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory there is a plaque that boldly proclaims: “The Center of the Universe.” With large screens on the wall displaying data being downloaded from various spacecraft across the solar system and engineers pouring over rows and rows of glowing screens in the darkened room, the Spaceflight Operations Facility resembles a scene from a science fiction film. It is a fitting description as this is the only place on Earth where we can communicate with robotic spacecraft in deep space.
