Earth, French Polynesia, Muroroa Atoll

1st Lt. “DaVinci” Colter sat motionless, hidden beneath the foliage of the atoll. His binoculars were focused on the roof of the squat, square building at the edge of the lagoon. A number of people had gathered to watch the rocket launch. Most of the people appeared to be part of the team working together. Only one, a woman, possibly in her 30’s or 40’s, seemed to be not enjoying the show.

Colter’s gaze went back to the launch pad. The rocket with its fuel cylinders, had been smoking recently. The launch was imminent. Colter studied the rocket and was well aware that this was not another nuclear test. The French had recently given up it’s nuclear testing at the atoll, but recently there had been a lot of activity at the site.

It wasn’t a test–it was a satellite launching, and this recon mission was to find out who was behind it. . . .
