The Mission

Status Report: Deep Space Anomaly

Date of Detection: 20 years ago

Source: Observation Telescope Eón-3

Classification: C.A.U.O (Cosmic anomaly of unknown origin)

Situation Summary

The Eón-3 telescope identified an anomaly in deep space, initially mistaken for a black hole due to its irregular optical behavior. Early observations indicated an absolute void, without thermal or spectral signals that would allow conventional classification.

However, the analysis of subsequently deployed probes confirmed that the anomaly did not correspond to a traditional astronomical phenomenon but rather to a celestial body of uncertain origin. It is a highly reflective planet, whose detection was hindered due to the way it distorts the light of surrounding stars, generating an anomalous optical effect.

Observed Behavior

    Optical Nature: Although initially believed to reflect no light, more recent studies have shown that its surface reflects stars irregularly, generating unknown refraction and distortion effects.

    Unknown Composition: Initial readings do not correspond to terrestrial materials or known celestial bodies, suggesting a biomechanical or crystalline structure with unique optical properties.

    Anomalous Movement: Initially thought to be static, continuous monitoring has revealed progressive displacement.

    Trajectory Projection: Orbital calculations indicate that in approximately 28 years, the planet will reach a proximity sufficient to affect the gravitational force of our home world.

Conclusion

Given the unknown nature and active displacement of the object, its analysis has been deemed high-priority. The Astraea-7 mission has been approved for advanced reconnaissance and evaluation of the potential impact of this celestial body on gravitational balance and humanity's security.

Current Status: Prelaunch

Summary: The Astraea-7 crew is preparing at the space base for the mission. Haruto, Kael, and Elara undergo intensive training while the ship undergoes final testing.

About Black Orbit

What is Black Orbit?

Black Orbit is an original light novel, a sci-fi story that blends cosmic horror, deep space exploration, and psychological drama. The story follows the mission of Astraea-7, a crew sent to investigate an enigmatic planet that appeared out of nowhere—one that defies all known laws of physics.

This project is currently presented as a light novel, but the vision for Black Orbit goes beyond text. The goal is to adapt it into a manga and, eventually, an anime, bringing this deep-space mystery to life through powerful visuals and animation.

By following Black Orbit, you are witnessing the evolution of an original universe—one that grows from written words into stunning illustrations and, in the future, full animation.
