The Starchild Compact Robert G. Williscroft

The Starchild Compact is an epic tale of beginnings, of roots, of what might have been, and what might be. The Starchild Compact is an adventure of heroic proportions, commencing on a planet 500 light years distant, arriving here just a few years from now, and ending up in the far distant expanses of the Universe. In a near future world dominated by NATO, the Eastern Block, and the Persian Caliphate, Jon Stock takes his exploration team to Saturn's moon, Iapetus - which they believe may be an artifact. While on Iapetus, the explorers meet with the mysterious Founders, whose technology is way beyond Earth's. The Founders' revelations impact the entire Solar System with momentous implications going backward and forward in time. This paves the way for a joint push by the explorers and Founders together into the distant reaches of the Galaxy.
