The starship Andromeda stops at the Keid triple-star system on its voyage of discovery and stumbles on a derelict Dyson Sphere. The starship is attacked by microbots scavenging one part of the sphere to repair another. They map the sphere and discover several primitive races inside—humanoid, feline, and saurian. They investigate the internal structure of the Dyson Sphere with its hundred-kilometer wide tubes filled with fast-moving magnetic fluid, and I-beams with hundred-kilometer wide plates and thirty-kilometer wide flanges that are one hundred meters thick.

Can you drop from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) with just a hardshell wingsuit? Navy SEAL Derek “Tiger” Baily and his SEALS Winged Insertion Command (SWIC) develop an experimental Gryphon hardshell wingsuit that can do just that. Eventually, when the presidential front-runner is seized by pirates for ransom, Baily’s six-man SWIC team must hurtle around the world, staging critical re-entry for a rescue, challenged to solve life-or-death problems with only seconds to spare. Can they survive? Will they effect the rescue?

A U.S. senator - likely next president - has been seized by pirates and held for 100 million dollars ransom. Derek “Tiger” Baily and his SEAL Winged Insertion Command (SWIC) get the call: A rescue operation with soldiers zooming in from the sky, the six-man squad’s first real combat operation. Hurtling around the world in the new Gryphon-10 MK Four hardshell wingsuit, Tiger and his team must literally improvise on the fly when everything goes wrong and they have everything to lose. Go into battle with Tiger and the SWIC on a mission of life or death in Robert G.

Derek “Tiger” Baily and his SEALs Winged Insertion Command (SWIC) drop from low Earth orbit to test the enhanced Gryphon-10 MK 4 hard shell wingsuit for combat applications. Every contingency has been planned. The six-man squad believes it is fully prepared for hurtling around the world and staging critical reentry. But challenged to innovate life-or-death solutions with only seconds to spare, Baily’s team might not survive intact.

The new armor-plated Gryphon-10 is ready to launch, and Derek “Tiger” Baily will test-fly it from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for the first time, more than double the Gryphon-7’s best drop. Orbital re-entry in nothing more than a wingsuit carries extreme risks, yet Tiger and his team must rely on the numbers - and their own practical know-how - as they plan for the worst and hope for the best.

Using a new Gryphon-7 hard-shell wingsuit, Tiger Baily, irreverent member of the Navy SEALS Winged Insertion Command, makes a harrowing first experimental base jump from the edge of Space, the Fred Noonan Skyport 80,000 meters above Jarvis Island in the Equatorial Pacific. Tiger’s target, which he must reach to survive, is Kiritimati Island, a tiny isolated atoll 379 km northeast of Jarvis over ever-threatening and oh-so-deep ocean waters.

Although presumed dead, Saeed Ismail resurfaces following the events of The Starchild Compact to lead a global Jihad. Aided by Founder Asshur, besieged Israelis on Earth make their way to Mars. Under Rod Zakes, the Iapetus Federation expands to include the human-settled parts of the solar system, protected by Dmitri Gagarin’s Federation Security Force. While global Jihad rages, the Starchild Institute on Iapetus develops a form of wormhole transportation, but will this new technology be ready in time to rescue Sam Houston and all that is left of the United States?

A scientist takes on the distortions and outright lies foisted on the public! Robert G. Williscroft firmly establishes that the sky is not falling. By using scientific research and solid reasoning, he explains some of the most disturbing problems facing our nation including global warming, the safety of nuclear power, the politics of education, and the oxymoron of government efficiency. With a clear message, he discerns what is true from what is merely Chicken Little gibberish.

Slingshot is a love story - about a man, a woman, another man, another woman, some gender bending...and a machine, the largest ever built. It is an adventure - about following a dream, the ocean-deep, outer space. Slingshot is about constructing the first space launch-loop, stretching 2,000 km between Baker and Jarvis Islands in the Equatorial Pacific. It's about high finance, intrigue, unlimited ambition, heroism, fanaticism, betrayal...and about opening space to the common person.

Is Saturn’s moon Iapetus an artifact?
