This could be a reality of the future. Imaging this itself made me think future would be so unlike now

I’m sure Moon and Mars will be inhabited soon with ads about spaces available ! This is the future I suppose.

Whoops. I just read this late at night. I will try not to have a nightmare, lol (as if I can control that)
Anagha Yatin · February 10, 2018 at 1:34 pm
Hahaha! Alice I wish you a great trip across the galactic in your dream. Share your experience later! Thanks for visiting.
Varsh · February 10, 2018 at 11:18 am
I really wonder how these sci-fi stories come to your mind! Who knows I might’ve seen this in my previous birth or will see it in next. ?
Anagha Yatin · February 10, 2018 at 1:35 pm
Varsh, we sure will witness it in one of the coming births and will be famous podcasters across the galactic. We will then have fan base across various planets!!! hahahaha…

What a lovely tale Anagha, too much beliveable as the was we are planning to habitat on moon and all. Humanoids searching for human traces on earth. Woah!!
Anagha Yatin · February 10, 2018 at 1:37 pm
Dipika…you got my heart for this! I had this very intention in mind that the humanoids that we will create will come back to rescue the human life, their creator!
Shilpa Gupte · February 10, 2018 at 11:51 am
Anagha, this is one of my favourite topics – sci-fi, astronomy and ‘what if the earth comes to an end’. Your post gave me an ‘Interstellar’ like feel! Have you seen that movie? DO watch it if you haven’t. I think this is how things will be one day…people on Mars, Moon and god-knows-where, and the Earth – our dear, old Earth – lying in ruins…a piece of rock making the rounds of the solar system!
Anagha Yatin · February 10, 2018 at 1:40 pm
Thats a great movie Shilpa, what an experience, what a story!
I wish Earth remains the green blue marvel of the universe and we reach out to exoplanets for settlements.
Thanks for visiting and sharing your views dear.
Roma · February 10, 2018 at 1:38 pm
Oops ?, that truly was some food for thought. Your writings are surely driving me more and more crazy about science fictions Anagha?. Keep up the good work ?
Anagha Yatin · February 11, 2018 at 9:14 pm
Thanks Roma for visiting and for the kind words. Look forward to some science fiction from you…
Meha Sharma · February 15, 2018 at 12:55 am
This is a brilliant sci-fi story! You certainly are a pro Anagha. I just hope this is not our planet’s future.
Anagha Yatin · February 15, 2018 at 12:01 pm
Thanks Meha for praising my efforts. I too hope that no celestial calamity ever bothers our dear Mother Earth.
Lavanya · February 15, 2018 at 2:54 pm
You know me:) loved every single syllable in the article and the hope after the apocalypse. Nicely done!
Anagha Yatin · February 15, 2018 at 4:35 pm
Lavanya…thanks for such an uplifting remark dear! Thanks for visiting.
Lavanya · February 15, 2018 at 7:59 pm
Cheers
rashimital · February 15, 2018 at 7:29 pm
This was a great story, Anagha. You’re right we don’t know so many things about our planet or the universe. I loved the positivity here. Though, the planet is no more, a ray of hope can always find its way, we only have to search for it. M glad were get another chancre. N i hope that humans dont ruin the lands of moon, mars, etc like they did on earth.
