The Impossible Distance: Every Light-Year Leads Deeper Into Yesterday

Jason Thomson, 2026

They built a starship that could go anywhere. No one guessed that anywhere was also anywhen. In 2238, the Meridian makes the first unlimited faster-than-light jump in history. Two hundred light-years in a single breath. And then the readings come back wrong. The stars are too young. The background runs too hot. Every jump outward is carrying the crew deeper into the universe's past. Dr. Kara Geddings spent twenty years ridiculed for one idea: that distance and time are the same thing. Now she is the only person aboard who understands what the instruments are screaming, and the only one who sees the truth waiting in the dark. Monuments older than the first galaxy. Markers that seem to know the ship is coming. And a pattern that means no one aboard the Meridian is ever going home. The deeper they go, the more advanced the ruins become, and the closer Kara gets to an answer that will cost more than her life to reach. Someone built these beacons across the whole age of the universe. Someone left a warning at the bottom of time. And the closer she gets, the more certain she becomes that the warning was written for her. For readers of Andy Weir, Ted Chiang, and Blake Crouch, THE IMPOSSIBLE DISTANCE is a hard-science mystery where every answer makes the universe stranger than the question, building to a choice no one should ever have to make. Some destinations should never be reached.
