Our galaxy is called Milky way. The masters have determined that may contain as many as 400 billion exoplanets, with almost every star hosting at least one planet. This is huge, isn't it? 

The Kepler space telescope also detected a few thousand candidate planets in late nineties, of which about 11% may be false positives.

There is at least one planet on average per star. Around 1 in 5 Sun-like stars have an "Earth-sized" planet in the habitable zone, with the nearest expected to be within 12 light-years distance from Earth. Assuming 200 billion stars in the Milky Way, that would be 11 billion potentially habitable Earth-sized planets in the Milky Way, rising to 40 billion if red dwarfs are included. The rogue planets in the Milky Way possibly number in the trillions.

The nearest known exoplanet, if confirmed, would be Alpha Centauri Bb, but there is some doubt about its existence. Almost all of the planets detected so far are within the Milky Way; however, there have been a small number of possible detections of extragalactic planets.

There are planets that are so near to their star that they take only a few hours to orbit and there are others so far away that they take thousands of years to orbit. Some are so far out that it is difficult to tell if they are gravitationally bound to the star.

I started studying the best option in my journey through the stars when I left solar system behind.

The discovery of exoplanets was always my mission but I understood immediately that I hadn't to find a new place for human beings. Instead I had to find the best suitable place to refound the life.

It was only a mistake, but it changed my life. A fault on my birth that meant I was deathless. My cells couldn't die. These could be injured but my system could replace the injured parts infinitely. Fortunately, this feature of my body wouldn't be showed until quite after time.

Nothing was apparently strange at the beginning. I was born in Tracy city which was the biggest city on the south of the earth, after the last World War, in year 2234. 

A new batch of explorers was made every five years and our goal was remarkably clear, to explore the universe.
Lots of lives and resources had gone after the last war and earth's life was nearly at the end unless we were able to find another place to live.

Our training lasted ten years. Firstly, five years indoors in the Me, Eco of the metropolis, connected to the Main brain who gave us all knowledge from human history such as biology, mathematics among others.
We had a weekly test. We could be removed if we failed. A failed test meant being unsuitable for the Major mission.

This early days were so hard as a novice-explorer that I often had nightmares. I knew any day could be the last one. 
I still remember when I was three years I was nearly to fail a weekly test. I was wondering about the fifth answer for a long time. Time was ticking. That moment was so frightening. Luckily, I answered the right answer. I dreamt about it for ages.

Periodically, we could have a chat with your own tutor after weekly test. My tutor was called Bri. It was so nice. It always made me feel better kidding me. Such a good android that I won't ever forget it.

Finally, we were training outdoors the following five years. It was when we realized human beings were in such a critical point that we couldn't fail. 
We met many new people who were working hard to help us to get successful in our mission. I felt sorry about them. Human beings didn't deserve such a crummy end.

I took off by spaceship in year 2244. I didn't know this would be last time I was going to see earth.

No voy a acabar
como prometí.
Seré una explosión
en cualquier lugar.

Por qué? 

Si era feliz.
Y tú lo sabrás.

Eras una parada
para tanto tiempo

sin punto muerto.

Ni alivio ni remedio,

no lo encuentro

en oxidado silencio
de lenguas explotadas.

I hate being alone but I’d to follow my last orders from my masters. Just one order, ever so simple, though difficult to comply with. I had to find the best planet for human life in our infinite universe as soon as possible.

A very puzzling request if you know there are millions of stars out there where rarely you're able to find some planet where life might exist. According to my latest estimate, there are more than one thousand eight hundred exoplanets just in our galaxy and as you know the Milky Way is just one galaxy among millions of them.

But now my search had been stopped by a message from earth. That was very unusual. Such a heavy file with lots of encrypted information and a text message. It was one month ago and I hadn't seen what the file contained yet but the message said: "What a disaster! It's our end. You must...". The message didn't continue. That was all. Then I tried to contact with the earth but I couldn't.

After a short time coming back to earth I knew why they didn't answer: the earth had gone. Where the earth had been, there was just a deep darkness. No place. No time. Nothing. It was so confusing. I wondered what had happened and what to do next.

Consequently, I wandered in my space ship for three days. Then I had a memory of my training days on earth. I remembered what was said by my master every morning before the training: "All our lives in your undying life". At that moment I understood what I had to do. My task had changed slightly. I rebooted the ship and started a new mission leaving everything known behind.

Now I was really alone but the most important was being carried into space.

En el individulismo, hiperconectados
formando una gran red binaria
donde la soledad,
nuestro último refugio innegociable,
ha quedado devastada

llena de ruidos digitales.

Distópica binaria

Hasta en la vida de revista
Existe la pena.
A veces un quebranto mal curado
Apoderándose de los silencios.

Siempre la duda malaputa
Jugando con tu satisfacción.

People

De la vida aprendí - y poco más -
Que sus huéspedes buscan amor
En todas sus múltiples vertientes.
Esa es mi única respuesta.

Así que andaros vigilantes.
Hasta la pregunta más corta
Puede esperar la respuesta
Más crucial y necesaria.

¿y ahora qué?

Cuando me olvidé de tu número de teléfono,
me olvidé de ti.

Luces sobre
Vientos insaciables.

Real life

Sombras en
Agua estancada.

Right life

en una ola de música alegre
con mis seres amados.

No necesito más.

hacia un mundo mejor
lleno de luz.

No necesito más.

lejos de tiempos
oscuros e inciertos.

No necesito más.

Una mano agarra otra mano
dulce y pequeña.

No necesito más.

La otra te coge a ti.
Os necesito.

Y no necesito más.


definitivamente

Quizás la satisfacción 

sea el resultado

de una ecuación resoluble 

con infinitas incógnitas.

Verlo de otro modo

es condenarte

a la búsqueda despiadada

de una variable tan idealizada

como inexistente.

El otro se ha estirado sobre la hierba

y me repite que no está cansado

que todavía queda mucho por hacer.

Me mira sorprendido. No entiende

qué ha pasado mientras una luz

cegadora le envuelve sin remedio.

Le he clavado con cinco clavos

bien hondos sobre la hierba.

Le he clavado con cinco clavos

bien hondos sobre la hierba.

El sol, alto sobre el escenario,

lo ilumina todo.

 

Y sobre una silla-camilla

me estiro, me sereno. Respiro los aromas

de este nuevo y sosegado sueño.

2nd's end

Allá donde van
todos los cántaros.

Allá donde bebía
de todas las aguas
las voces se unían
para gritar juntas.

Hoy es ya
inaccesible.


Amediavoz

Sobre las cenizas
de otros mundos perdidos
aparecen las vidas.

En la humedad del agua pasada,
evaporada. En el Desierto creado
resurgimos bacterianos.

Anidando lugares copiados
de imágenes soñadas
en la transición replicante y efímera.


present

Busca los trucos
entre las palabras recién inventadas.

Rómpete la cabeza y
encontrarás sangre.

Maniátame con tus cuerdas
y el sofá será tuyo.

Un pie con fuerza
de la mano.

Una buena consigna
y el adiós decidido.


endly

Huyen dos puntos
idénticos
con orgullo y rabia.

La noche pasó amargas
horas
y todo arde igual.

Buscan el lugar del día
para descansar.

Las rejas se han
entreabierto
y pasan los espejos.

¿Qué encontrará la piedra
cuadrada
viajando en el agua?

Tras cargarse con "hastas"
llegó su final.


mem

He tenido que aguantar
Mucha mierda.

Me encontré en medio
Con un pañuelo blanco
Secando las lágrimas.

/*/

Como un dique seco
Sobre un mar de mentiras.

Un muro de las vergüenzas
levantado sobre lodos
de misericordia y pena.


The family

Soy el tambor olvidado
en un rincón de la sala.
La banda se marchó
a nuevas partes.

El repiqueo lejano
resuena solitario
en la profundidad
de mis tímpanos.

Late

El aplomo inexcusable
de los deberes
alzan a la ridiculez
las manías
que brillaron atrás.


Rutine

¿Llorará más,
un pájaro moribundo,
al vuelo pasado o
a sus maltrechas alas?

¿Cuándo se sabe uno
realmente vencido,
apaleado o noqueado?

¿Será cuando el tiempo
se vuelve lento
y te fijas en las nubes?

Entonces será la calle
un paseo para tus pies
y ahuecarás la eterna niebla
esperando
el sueño reparador.


Te quiero,
