Notes[]

This issue's story title is likely named after the Sargasso Sea, the only "sea" that has no land boundaries but is surrounded by four currents forming a large ocean gyre called the North Atlantic Gyre. The southwestern edge of the Sargassa Sea overlaps with the northeastern edge of the Bermuda Triangle.
The astronaut's spaceship is named after the African-American science fiction writer Octavia E. Butler.
In the real world, the universe isn't old enough for any blue dwarf stars to have formed yet.

Quotes[]

Everywhere we look...we are surrounded by ships. All orbiting...is this a blue dwarf star? Huh. Their existence has always only been theoretical...at least on Earth.
