Nice little yarn and so eloquently presented. Not a story destroying robo voice within the range of sight nor sound, thank the Gods. Much appreciated.

You read very well.This is awesome.I like this.I'm almost 60 years old and this type of Sci-Fi is preferred way over videos.Thanks for what you're doing❤

Glad you enjoyed it!

It sounds like they didn't even use the unknown alien tech they found.

The tech they found was just a targeting computer, but that alone is a very key part of any weapons system

That was very good, I enjoyed the story. Thank you

That's funny "successfully navigate the astroid field". I believe the average distance between each object is 600,000 miles. You could successfully navigate Jupiter through it without ever seeing anything.

It's because of Jupiter that our asteroid belt is so scant. Without it, we would have more of them.

Yeah, but where is the fun in that? I've seen the original Star Wars, more fun dodging those things than trying to spot them on RADAR

There is still "micro" particles, that can puncture a ship... death by 1,000 cuts..

yes and no. The thing is, the asteroids are not all moving at the same speed, therefore you must be aware of all the trajectories of asteroids as well as your position to the enemy.

You forget, this asteroid field is a theoretical future where a colossal battle occurred and the wrecks of ships also lay. What I REALLY don't understand is why the aliens didn't frag Earth at the beginning of the 'rebellion' . . it's not like they had a colony on it. And why was the aliens 'Mothership' being used for a supply run??

This is the most purple prose I’ve come across since Lovecraft.

Some people have no idea what the asteroid belt is like, they have watched too any ScFi films.

I've watched a lot of sci-fi films how does that influence the way I perceive the belt? I really don't know what they are actually like, aren't they just floating rocks that bump and grind each other?

Any asteroid field that isn't brand new has all of the constituent matter basically at rest with respect itself (though the field itself my be orbiting something). So, they wouldn't be knocking into each other.

Our asteroid belt is old. The rings around saturn are young and probably won't last long. In other star systems you could get much different densities.

Great story! Very well read! Loved the inflections.

I thought it would have helped if the battle took place at one of the Lagrange points made by Jupiter’s gravity making it dense enough to cause problems. If most of the asteroids there were like Dimophos then there could be dust clouds all over from the battle making good cover.

Nicely read! Cool story.

This was awesome. I liked the story and the narrator of the story was excellent. Thank you.

Going out in a blaze of glory!

Hol' up, wait- once the team got going with the new plan they "sometimes resorted to scavenging"... Wasn't scavenging what got this yarn started? Otherwise, kudos to you for voicing this yourself. Our CG overlords are doing a shitty job prepping the way for their AI overlords...

Hell Yeah! Finaly! Human on deck..

that was an very enjoyable story teling. thank you

An explosion on the planet-affecting a ship in space? Not too believable.

Find piece of junk and it must be a game changer?

how did it get rusty ? no oxygen , to rust it !

I WAS ENVISIONING A WIRELESS JUKEBOX THAT COULD TRANSMIT MIND MELTING ROCK AND ROLL LIKE MAGIC CARPET RIDE. THAT WOULD SURELY DRIVE THE ALIENS AWAY AND MOST LIKELY DRIVE THEM INSANE AS WELL !!!!!!!!!!!!

sounds pretty similar to a story we uploaded a few weeks ago! kzread.info/dash/bejne/kaiMr9GEpqaocZM.html

Hubble informed us more about the asteroid belt(s). It's fascinating and a great place to hide your ship when hard ass aliens come calling.

Wait! But this is impossible! The humans are made out of meat! How could meat defeat all our beautiful plans and technology?

Kind of a silly story. Hitting them once, even the flagship, would likely elicit a violent response...a response so extreme that it puts humanity further on a knifes edge. This would have required a coordinated attack on multiple targats...something to cripple the bulk of the fleet. The bigger question is WHY THEY WERE THERE AT ALL. CLEARLY THEY COULD HAVE GLASSED EARTH. WHY DEVOTE RESOURCES TO SOMETHING THEY SEEM TO VIEW AS AN ANNOYANCE AT THIS POINT.

What kind of story doesn't have an ending?

The reading, needs more inflections, and different tones for each character in a dialog exchange, with more use of the authors punctuation to guide the speed and the pauses. Already much better then the chatbot voices, but room to improve.

The Narration was good. But the story itself ??? Lets just say it wasn't your best work. Way too many plot holes, linked together by just about every cliche` in the HFY genre.....

Having the reader's face in the corner, freak's me out,so I don't bother

Sorry dude, I could barely make it through five minutes. Your borderline monotone voice just killed the whole listening experience for me. :(

Thank you SO SO SO MUCH, for the REAL narration. It makes ALL the difference, especially since we are supposed to be supporting the ingenuity and intelligence of human beings over that of A.I.😉😆👍🤌💪 Can't say HFY, then use a.i to narrate, can ya???
