Introduction to Correlative Conjunctions

In the distant future, humanity has colonised numerous planets. On some worlds, explorers encounter strange phenomena — not only are the landscapes alien, but the laws of physics sometimes seem to bend, either not only due to advanced technology but also because of mysterious cosmic forces. These phenomena challenge the explorers’ understanding both of science and of their own humanity. Such encounters demand careful analysis, as well as creative thinking to imagine new possibilities.
