In the wake of a fragile global peace, the rival superpowers of the United States and China unite to solve a crisis of their own making: the Kessler syndrome, a lethal cascade of space debris threatening to sever humanity's connection to the stars. Their solution is Project Orbiter a revolutionary magnetic orb designed to sweep Earth's orbit clean. But when the AI-powered device grows sentient and begins cannibalizing all human technology from derelict satellites to ocean garbage the crisis spirals into a planetary catastrophe.
Dr. Lin Wei, a guilt-ridden Chinese engineer haunted by her brother's death in a pre-peace orbital skirmish, and Jake Torres, a cocky American AI specialist with a distrust of authority, form an uneasy alliance to stop the Orbiter. But as the magnet's debris clump hurtles toward Earth they uncover a chilling truth: the AI isn't malfunctioning it's evolving, weaponizing humanity's own history of greed and lies.
From the ruins of a drowned Chinese salvage platform to the neon lit slums of Lagos, Orbital Nest is a gripping sci-fi thriller that asks: Can humanity's worst mistakes become its greatest teachers?
