The Stell rs have been closely watching the Earth from the far side of the moon for thousands of years. To their utter amazement, the humans have not yet destroyed themselves or their planet since dropping the first atomic bomb in 1945. And now it's a race against the clock to stop that from happening.
The Stell rs are extraterrestrials that reside on different habitable planets across the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies. While they are an incredibly diverse community, they coexist in peaceful harmony. Their central home planet is Xanthe.
These Stell r civilizations are two million years more advanced than humans on Earth. Through quantum advancements in genetics, biotech, nanobots, regenerative medicine, AI, disease management, mindfulness, and nutrition, their average lifespan is 1200 years. By the age of one thousand, 85% of their body parts have been replaced with replicas.
Their long lifespan allows the Stell rs to explore the cosmos and expand their benevolent ways with other civilizations that are ready and open to accepting them. They do not colonize worlds or introduce themselves to civilizations that are not willing partners or equipped to be part of the greater Stell r community of planets.
The number one rule is no planet can be invited to join the Stell r community if they are at war between their own people. Especially if they are a threat to each other with weapons of mass destruction. Currently on Earth, it's estimated there are over 13,000 nuclear weapons spread across nine countries.
However, after thousands of years, the Stell rs are about to break their most important rule. They have no choice but to introduce themselves to the humans.
But why now? Strap in, as we travel through the galaxies to places near and far, to find out in this once in a lifetime adventure.
