About this listen

 The greatest gift a man can ever receive is an understanding of the limits of his capabilities. Inside every human resides the urge to be the master of his environment, pitting inner strength and intellectual power against the raw forces of nature. For some, it’s the only thing that makes them feel alive. When a group of explorers set out to prove that establishing a colony on Trappist-1e is the divine will of their creator, they begin farming a small plot of land on the shore of that distant world. When circumstances change, they’re forced to return home early, which means they must not only prove their case to a divided and angry world, but also convince them to be allowed to return. As an incentive to force a second expedition, Nickolas Roshenko volunteers to stay behind—alone—in order to keep the experiment alive. While they’re apart, Nickolas finds himself tested again and again, and with each new challenge, he must reach deep within himself to solve the puzzles of this new world. Using every bit of his vast experience, he finds himself on bitter terms with nature, and unless he can overcome the brutal wrath of Trappist-1e, he might not live to see them return. While he struggles to survive, his friends are engaged in a war of nerves against a maniacal government agency back on Earth, where they are pushed to their limits in their quest to save humanity from themselves. In the process of establishing the truth of their story, one sympathetic air force colonel uncovers the reality of what they truly recovered on Trappist-1e, even if they don’t yet understand it themselves. What she discovers will not only set them free; it will rock the foundations of science and change the nature of human existence forever. This is an adventure of epic proportions and a story that will satisfy the inner longing to understand how far is too far when facing the consequences of our deepest desires.
