Science Fiction Conspiracies Like Disclosure Day

A huge and increasingly broken space station orbits the Earth, housing the last dregs of humanity and searching for a new planet to call home. They found it, but at a cost, and now, things have taken a strange turn. A signal has been picked up from Earth, which was supposed to be uninhabitable. But it seems there may be survivors on its polluted surface, and they've found a way to survive. 

Riley Hale is stuck on a spaceship with the group of terrorists who plan to investigate the old Earth. When re-entry goes horribly wrong, she finds herself hundreds of miles from her companions Prakesh and Carver, alone and with little hope of survival. The Earth humans left behind has more than a few surprises to reveal to its returning owners.

In Clifford D. Simak's classic, after a normal night out, science reporter Parker Graves returned home to a strange sight. He barely missed walking into a bear trap, which then transformed into a sphere and rolled off into the night. Who put the trap there? Who wanted to hurt him? The following day, there is strange news floating around at the newspaper office. 

Someone with limitless funds is buying up hundreds of homes and businesses, only to close them up and tear them down, leaving countless people homeless and without jobs. It's up to Parker to uncover the truth, but someone doesn’t want him to find it. 

It's the late 20th century. The otherworldly Wes-Dem and Pac-Peop have declared war and are using Earth as their battleground. The bulk of humanity has fled underground, living in "ant tanks" where they hope to survive until the fighting stops. For 15 years, the below-ground world has been fed on daily broadcasts of a never-ending nuclear destruction, sustained by a belief in the all-powerful Protector. On the surface, however, things are very different. Who is maintaining this lie and why?

Maia is a half-caste var, a human born free of genetic engineering and part of the bottom of society, with few hopes for her future. To achieve her dreams, she must leave the clan home of her privileged half-sisters and find her place somewhere beyond the familiar. But her options are limited in a world ruled by clones. 

With her twin sister, Leie, she searches the docks of Port Sanger, where she hopes to find work on one of the vessels that sail the trade routes of the Stratoin oceans. At sea, Leie is lost, and Maia must find her, but among the stars, whispers are spreading of something, or someone, who might have the power to end the isolation of Stratos from the rest of humanity…

In The Three-Body Problem, scientists around the world are dying by suicide. There seems to be no connection between their deaths, but it cannot be a coincidence. Detective Shi Qiang is brought on board to investigate, alongside Wang Miao, a nanotechnologist. Wang discovers a strange, hyper-real video game, Three Body, wherein players participate in a curious scientific simulation they must solve before time runs out. Its mysteries reveal China's history of first contact with an alien species from a planet orbiting the ternary star system of Alpha Centauri, and of a nefarious scheme to bring them to Earth.

Joseph Malik has disappeared. The editor of Confrontation, a radical magazine full of wild investigations into secret societies and assassination conspiracies, had been looking into rumors of an ancient group of curious origins when his offices were bombed and he vanished without a trace. 

Detectives Saul Goodman and Barney Muldoon have been brought in to investigate, and things only get weirder from there. How weird? Well, the plot includes the lost city of Atlantis, a talking porpoise, human sacrifice, aliens, pimps, and an evil rock band with plans to achieve eternal life.

One cannot talk about science fiction without including the legacy of Isaac Asimov, whether it’s through his establishment of the laws of robotics or his ground-breaking Foundation saga. 

For 12,000 years, the Galactic Empire has ruled vast regions of space with an iron fist. Now, it's on the verge of extinction. Hari Seldon, creator of the revolutionary science of psychohistory, has seen into the future. Humanity is destined to spend 30,000 years in a new dark age, one of war and violence that will cause untold damage to the species. 

To preserve knowledge and save humankind, Seldon gathers the best minds in the Empire and brings them to a new planet on the edge of the galaxy. There, they can build a sanctuary of curiosity and hope that will keep our species alive beyond the violence. This is the Foundation.

In 1942, while imprisoned at the Chełmno extermination camp, Saul Lasky is determined to escape, but a strange force compels him to follow the obscene demands of a perversely powerful SS Officer. 40 years later, Saul is now a psychologist, notorious for his outlandish theories about psychic forces and inexplicable violence. He meets Natalie, a young woman looking for answers over the death of her father. 

There are those with the Ability, the power to possess people's minds and compel them to do as they please, no matter how vile or dangerous they may be. Among them are an elite cadre of immoral billionaires who use The Ability to rig elections, start wars, and spread fear. 

Their end goal? Total chaos.
