The Drifting Worlds is a sweeping, cosmic epic that reimagines our Solar System as a grand planetary migration—from molten newborns torn from the Sun, to temperate blue worlds rich with life, to fading red deserts, and finally to frozen elder planets drifting in the dark frontier beyond Pluto.
This story explores a bold theory: that planets do not form once and remain fixed, but instead move outward across the ages, cooling and transforming through predictable stages. In this saga, Mercury-like worlds evolve into Venus-like furnaces, Earth-like havens, Mars-like deserts, and eventually into the icy relics haunting the Kuiper Belt.
Along the way, readers encounter ancient civilizations that may have lived on Mars during its warm era, witness the veiling of young planets under crushing atmospheres, and follow the birth of a new world from the Sun’s molten skin. The tale concludes with a profound reflection on what this theory—metaphorical or real—could mean for the future survival of humanity.
Is Earth living in its brief golden moment?
Will Venus inherit our place?
Are Pluto and its neighbors the tombstones of ancient worlds?
And what must humanity do to outrun the destiny of its planet?
The Drifting Worlds offers a visionary blend of science, philosophy, and cosmic storytelling—inviting readers to ponder not only how planets live and die, but how life must endure beyond them.
