Week­ly Moon Dis­patch – Week of July 18, 2026

Do you need more Moon joy this week?

The long lunar night is still hold­ing Con­rad Sta­tion in its grip. With the Sun far below the hori­zon, Deputy Gen Miller con­tin­ues her patrols through the dim­ly lit cor­ri­dors. The sta­tion feels tense and watch­ful as we count down the final days before Mask of the Joy­ful Moon lands.

Mask of the Joy­ful Moon con­tin­ues the Fab­u­lae Lunae saga — a hard sci­ence fic­tion sto­ry of one deter­mined deputy, frag­ile alliances, cor­po­rate shad­ows, and a shad­ow war that reach­es from Earth all the way to the lunar frontier.
