🌌 Cosmic Drive: The Andrew Elsan Chronicles Episode 13 – The Unbound Rise When the universe becomes a machine, one soul becomes a rebellion. 🪐 Weekly Release · Friday | 1 May 2026 Volume II: Shattered Orbits Freedom has spread. But not everyone seeks balance. 🌠 Episode 13 – The Unbound Rise The resonance network was no longer quiet. Across liberated systems, signals flared unpredictably—sharp, aggressive, uncoordinated. These were not cries for help. They were declarations. Andrew Elsan felt the difference immediately. “These voices,” he said slowly, “They’re not asking how to survive.” Nyx Calder adjusted the projections, his expression darkening. “They’re rejecting guidance altogether,” he said. “They call themselves The Unbound .” The name echoed uneasily through the chamber. Unlike the awakened worlds that sought harmony, the Unbound believed freedom meant absolute release —no structure, no responsibility, no shared rhythm with the universe. “No Grid. No balance. No restraint.”...
It
doesn’t! The oxygen level of the planet has varied quite dramatically in the
last 500 million years. It was 35 per cent during the Carboniferous period, around
300 million years ago; as the climate, cooled and land plants died off, oxygen
fell to as low as 12 per cent by the beginning of the Triassic. Back then, the
air at sea level would have felt thinner than at the top of the Alps today.
Burning
fossil fuels has reduced oxygen levels very slightly – about 0.057 per cent
over the last 30 years. Deforestation only has a small effect because when
rainforest is cut down, other plants are usually grown in its place. But it’s
marine phytoplankton (plant plankton), rather than trees, that produces about
75 per cent of atmospheric oxygen. Global warming will have a significant
impact on phytoplankton, which is a much more serious threat to oxygen levels.
