This real danger could happen now. Two astronomers discover a cloud of hydrogen, the size of the asteroid belt, approaching the Solar System and realize it is on a collision course with Earth.

This could have happened at the start of our Solar System and it could still happen any time now...

Two astronomers discover a cloud of hydrogen, the size of the asteroid belt, approaching the Solar System and realize it is on a collision course with Earth.

At a high-ranking meeting to discuss their findings they are sworn to secrecy. It isn’t long though, before their young, but brilliant, apprentice, Lauren, discovers the impending catastrophe. As the true horror of Earth’s future eventually becomes apparent, she must make a decision which will turn her world upside down...

A runaway global warming crisis revolves around more horrific problems which emerge due to the birth of another sun in our Solar System.

Distant Suns is a heart-wrenching, apocalyptic, thriller about love, self-sacrifice and the human ability to adapt and survive in the face of impending extinction.

If you have an interest in astronomy, like drama with a good dash of excitement and enjoy science fiction, which takes place in the present, then this is the story for you.
