Humanity believes time is measured in years.
The civilizations beyond Earth know otherwise.
Hidden within the vast archives of Scuttle Nexus exists the Infinite Calendar, a system used to track the development of intelligent species throughout the cosmos. Every civilization follows a measurable path through discovery, innovation, expansion, and ultimately its place among the stars. Earth does and does not.
The civilizations beyond Earth know otherwise.
Hidden within the vast archives of Scuttle Nexus exists the Infinite Calendar, a system used to track the development of intelligent species throughout the cosmos. Every civilization follows a measurable path through discovery, innovation, expansion, and ultimately its place among the stars. Earth does and does not.
According to the Infinite Calendar, humanity is somehow vastly behind thanks to social media and the use of AI. Somehow though they are advancing towards a milestone it should not reach for thousands of years. The calculations are impossible. The projections contradict everything known about galactic development. Yet every observation points to the same conclusion:
Humanity is ahead of schedule; Earth is a true anomaly. To investigate, Scout, a young biomechanical Scuttle and her companion Rover, is sent to Earth. Scuttles are created from living tissue, advanced machinery, and synthetic intelligence, existing somewhere between organism and machine. Her mission is simple: determine why humanity's future refuses to follow the Calendar. But Earth proves far more complicated than expected. After meeting Rowan and his 2 dogs Dax and Bella she becomes immersed in his life and the lives of his two best friends Ben and John. Scout begins experiencing humanity firsthand rather than through distant observation. What begins as a scientific investigation gradually becomes a journey of friendship, discovery, belonging, and love.
As impossible discoveries begin to surface and long buried truths emerge, Scout realizes humanity's place in the universe may be far greater than anyone imagined. The Infinite Calendar is used to make sure Planets and civilizations are on track and predict their places in the universe. For the first time it may be wrong. Scuttle Scout is a science fiction adventure combining biomechanical life, cosmic mystery, advanced technology, and the enduring power of love and friendship. Set against the backdrop of beautiful Mobile Alabama's Gulf Coast and the vast unknown beyond the stars, it tells the story of one young Scuttle's search for answers and the human and canine connections that change her forever.
