This free public event will feature an introduction by Caltech PhD Candidate and anthology editor-in-chief Rachael Kuintzle; excerpt readings by renowned Caltech alumni David Brin, S. B.

The book will not be sold at this event, but the Kindle Ebook is now available for purchase on Amazon and the paperback is coming in April 2023. All royalties from book purchases will go directly to the TechLit club to support club events and projects.

Fact ignites fiction in this first-of-its-kind anthology of speculative tales by Caltech and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) scientists, engineers, technologists, and students. Experts at the frontiers of their fields, along with renowned Caltech alumni such as David Brin, S. B. Divya, and Larry Niven, present stories about alien astrobiologists, AI parenthood, a quest to preserve our histories beyond the heat death of the universe, a heist to steal engineering secrets from an ancient monk-scientist, the recovery of a long-lost phase of the human life cycle, the demise of Earth's first intelligent speciesbillions of years before the rise of humanity, and much more!
