Starhopper Radio

Starhopper Radio was -and one day will again be- a science fiction anthology podcast composed of a series of short, loosely-connected episodes showcasing events and locations throughout known space. Starhopper Radio has no serial chronology, with the four currently extant episodes jumping between the 22nd, 25th, and 29th centuries in no particular order. It is important to note that the currently available episodes of Starhopper Radio are noncanonical, as they were made relatively early on in the development of Astra Planeta's current incarnation.
