Third

After quite a long time, here I go again with some information about the whole thing:
- Another main character: A freshman-soldier. Just joined the army. A geek, who studied propulsion technology before, but was only interested in weapons. Helps out with weapons in the story (need some tasks for his storyline later on ;)
- The story starts with a man who discovers, that the mars is leaving it's orbit around the sun slowly. (No - not what you think. It woun't crash into the earth)
- Another discovery: S.E.T.I. finds out, that someone receives the signal they're sending. Someone tries to find out, if the signal changes, if it's being answered. But the way it's being answered - in very small, alomst undiscoverable packages - makes S.E.T.I. suspicious about the intensions of the receiver. Maybe it wasn't so good to let everyone know, that we're here ;)
- Yes, there will be a contact. But I am not completely sure about, how. Because it'll not be very peaceful.
Hope, that gives you an impression, how the story will change in the second part.

Ok. My first spoiler caused a little bit confusion about what I am about to tell in the story. So here some more points that will light it up again:
- The sattelite is supposed to be found long time before 2150. And it's supposed to hand over knowledge to mankind.
- The satellite KI was developed in the 2150s for exactly this one purpose. No super - KI, that tries to destroy the world in the end. But smart enough to do this job.
- There is a reason, why the satellite was send back in time, supposed to be found decades before it was send. I know the reason. No need to discuss about this topic here.
see ya

Here it is. The first deeper sight into the story. I hope, that I don't tell you too much in this few thoughts.
- The story will be devided into different parts with different main characters. One of them will be the satellite - AI.
- The purpose of the AI is, to controll the handover of future technology to the mankind today. This purpose is not gonna be told in the first half of the story.
- The second half of the story will deal with another 2 information stores on the satellite (besides the video-storage). One with technology from the 2150s (and later!). Another one with information, what else was send back into time. The AI is handling these information and will not give them out all at once.
So far. I hope it clears some things up a little bit ;)

Another spoiler warning
This might answer the question is timeline flexible, parallel, looped or fixed.
I'm interested in what does the AI know about the history 2015 - 2150. Is it sent here to prevent the worlds end at 2150? and if it fails, they'll just send it back again.
DY: my point is that causing a time flux might be what they (the senders of the satellite) are tying to do
I neglected to say that the superior intelligence and design of the satellite would kick in the contingency plan to stop the retrieval back to earth.
If the ESA and NASA did know about it from documentation and the video footage found back in 2150 when the satellite was brought back. Would this not introduce a causality or a paradoxe in the future, or possibly time fluxes.

DY : Unless the the purpose of the satellite is to be discovered in 2015. the people of 2150 would know that it was discovered. Unless the governments, ESA and NASA keep it under wraps. Is the satellite fulfilling history or set to create alternate time line? There is much potential both ways.
Sorry to pick at things but.....
In 2015, the ESA discovers a sattelite somewhere in space approximately half way between Earth and Mars. And it seems to watch the earth. With support from the NASA, they're getting the sattelite down to earth and start to examine it. They succeed. And they find out the most unbelievable things they could imagine.
If this satellite is from 2150 would the AI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence) not be off a high superior intelligence and design.
Who ever sent the satellite would of had a contingency plan if it ever got discovered back in the past.
But this could be a side plot to the story
