Satellite of Fear

"Satellite of Fear" by Frederic Arnold Kummer is a science fiction story that unfolds on the asteroid Ceres, where a crew aboard the "Comet" is caught in a web of fear and danger. Led by Ken Grant and Joan Conway, these explorers are initially on a mission to mine pitchblend, but their task quickly turns into a desperate fight for survival. As they search for missing crew members, they stumble upon disturbing phenomena and deadly plots orchestrated by Allers, a deceitful former member seeking personal gain. The crew must then navigate not only the brutal chilling conditions of Ceres but also a growing sense of dread, confronting both external threats and internal betrayals in a stark battle that tests their courage, loyalty, and capacity for sacrifice.
