  • The Earthian Expedition franchise is a space opera saga based on the bestselling novel series of the same name by sci-fi author Timothy Zahn, who has also written similar books that are part of the Star Wars Universe. Zahn is writing the screenplay for the films, which are being directed by the legendary Steven Spielberg and distributed by 20th Century FOX. Spielberg and 20th Century FOX have a contract with Zahn and his publishers at Bantam Books to make the movies based on all the books part of the series. The films focus on humanity's exploration of space in the near future (early 2000s), landing on/claiming all the other planets and eventually reaching the North Star and Alpha Centauri A. They also discover a large, kind, spacefaring nation-species, the Myt'lan, who help humanity progress even further and are working together to reach another galaxy (the Andromeda Galaxy) in the current year in the books. NASA Engineer Zachery Lincoln (Harrison Ford) is the principal character, having initiated America's Ares program. His arch-rival from the USSR is Mikhail Nikolai Vladimirovich (Arnold Schwarzenegger), who pushed Russia into space. Lincoln and Vladimirovich were both born in 1964 and grew up with interests in space exploration, astronomy, and eventually Star Wars, as seen in flashbacks, thus setting the scene for the books and films.
