Last Emergence is a Alternate History Science Fiction Novel set 3000 years after a large asteroid was sent to impact the earth. In orbit, survivor descendants, of three combined space stations, watch, as two groups of humans claw their way back toward civilization. When they rediscover radio, the aliens will detect their transmissions and send another asteroid, as they have done several times. The Earth Station inhabitants lost their ability to withstand Earth’s gravity many generations ago. In a desperate attempt to forestall the inevitable, two survivors of the unsuccessful space defense battle are recovered and revived from a 3000-year cold sleep, before they are sent back to earth. This is their story. Former USSF Captain Mark Clemens looked at the countdown display again. In less than ten minutes he would follow Anna back to Earth. Her shuttle had encountered a significantly higher jet-stream wind than expected. It blew her further North then she could correct, and she finally landed on an island at the edge of the Northern Ice Cap. Thankful she was down safely, but Mark's stomach was in a knot. She was almost a hundred miles North of the planned landing site, and he didn't know if he had enough fuel to reach her new landing site. Mark understood the logic of using both shuttles for this mission, but his heart was breaking at the danger to the woman he loved. Unless he could reach her, she would be alone in a fifteenth-century world.
