    Summary

    “Um, hello.” Rocky lifts a hand slowly. The rock spider chitters and attempts to lift one back. But it’s tangled in wire, and the force that the alien uses to tug it free sends his body reeling backwards and thumping against the side of the tunnel. Rocky tries to keep a straight face.

    “I’ll call you Grace,” he says. “Clearly you have plenty of it.”

    ...

    Rocky wakes up in the Tau Ceti system, with his commander and science specialist dead. How's he supposed to save Earth?

    Befriend the alien scientist he runs into, of course.

    Summary

    We know the story of how Project Hail Mary ends (if not, finish the book bc spoilers obv). Rocky and Ryland go to Erid together, where it’s up to the reader to decide whether or not Ryland ever returns to earth.
    But what if they never went to Erid in the first place?
    What if Rocky had joined Ryland on the journey to Earth?

    Summary

    In relative terms, the trip from the Tau Ceti system to the 40 Eridani system takes the Hail Mary a little over three Earth years.
    This is what happens when you put two snarky aliens in a small, enclosed space for that long.

    Summary

    “I just think it’s kind of a messed-up thing to do to a baby,” I said.

     

    AKA: the one with time travel. When the opportunity arises, Rocky and Ryland can't turn down the chance to save Rocky's crew.

    It all kind of spirals from there.
