What if some UFO sightings are real? Flying saucers controlled by intelligent life forms from other worlds. If so, why would they travel so far to explore our Earth and at the same instance, conceal their excursions? Perhaps one reason would be... they are not traveling so far, after all. This story explores the possibility of one such scenario. =================================== The Voyage Home: Our first encounter with intelligent life The world has united to send the first human crewed mission into deep space. No one, not even the nations who finance the mission, believe it will succeed. It is only seen as a way to help unite a dying world. No one, however, is aware of the designer's hidden agenda. This experimental flight will bring mankind face to face with an advanced alien civilization. The shock will be their location - in our own solar system.
