Brad Lansky and the Result War
J.D. Venne
The Rogue Planet missed Earth by a few thousand kilometers and quickly receded into the blackness of space.
The Sleepers, the smartest form of biological life ever encountered, showed no interest in Earth and shunned all communication, even with GAIA.
The massive object deflected Earth inward, toward the Sun.
Earth’s new orbit is elliptical - a colossal shock for every creature.
For those who cling to life, the new normal means long dismal winters, punctuated by short summers of searing heat.
Worst of all, the new orbit is chaotic, because it gets too close to Venus.
All of humanity is anxiously looking at GAIA to restore certainty, and with it, hope.
GAIA’s vast computational abilities are being brought to bear on a single, fiendishly difficult result:
What is the future of Earth’s orbit?
But this result is also of great interest to others. So great, that someone has started a very public ‘result war’ with GAIA.
Someone anonymous, with monumental computing power, for reasons only a paranoid AI could begin to comprehend.
