Book Preview After the Big Bang occurred, and after standard elements precipitated out due to the high pressure and temperature of star-building and explosions of supernovas, an unusual element was created under rare conditions. This Element is so rare that it's only found on a few planets within our entire universe, and one of those planets is planet Earth. ......fast forward billions of years into the future..... Asteroids, billions of years old, come crashing down on the Black Hills of South Dakota and into the eastern prairie. A free Band of Lakota Indians witnesses the most spectacular light show on earth. The light show lasted for hours while the Indian people took cover for their lives. ......fast forward 100+ years...... Soil erosion over the past 100+ years has uncovered many dark-rock outcrops on ranch land as well as on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The locals accepted these dark-rocks as ordinary landscapes, but one young Lakota Indian man became more curious, and the results he found were literally from out of this world. News of the Super Element brought fortune hunters from all over the country, and they descended on the Black Hills just like the gold rush days of the late 1870s. A modern Wild West begins, but it also has the modern dangers of adversary countries and inquisitive billionaires looking for a profit in the next significant invention. Who owns this Super Element, and who will protect it from being stolen? In a "David vs. Goliath" situation, this small community of ranchers and American Indians from the Reservation stand up to enormous opponents. With help from others in and around the Black Hills, they fight for what is theirs and for the national defense of their country. The book titled "Surviving Asteroid Storm Super Element 126" began billions of years ago when the elements of the universe were created. This new Super Element traveled in a cluster of asteroids for billions of years until some crashed onto planet earth. The story revolves around a strange dark-rock found in a poor rural area in South Dakota. The people of this community are strong, resourceful, and independent. They have survived harsh environmental conditions for all of their lives. Still, even they seek help when an astonishing material, found only in one area of our planet, attracts influential individuals and desperate countries. Help comes from a variety of odd sources, including bikers from the Sturgis Rally and an army of old pickup trucks.
