Description

Over 300 years have passed since Princess Twilight Sparkle took her place on the throne alongside Celestia and Luna. The races of Earth have forged their own alliances and rivalries throughout the solar system, from Mercury to Pluto bright dots of civilization twinkle, only outshined by the stars themselves.
 
Earth is dominated by sprawling empires, the remaining havens of nature and neutrality jealously guarded in the midst of a rigid power struggle between Equestria and the upstart Gryphon Federation. The homeland of the Zebras lies under deadly, corrupting mist from Tartarus itself. Dragons at long last have a land of their own after nearly facing extinction. Changelings scheme inside every organization, every government. The elements of harmony are praised as great heroes long after passing on, this world quite different from the one they’d saved time and time again.
 
Those who dare chart the enormity of the void find a knife behind every smile, or a helping hoof when least expected. The final frontier has no borders, no compass, and no limits. It is an indifferent deity whose pilgrims find refuge and hardship in equal measure, but the treasures it rewards true believers cannot be bought with anything less than courage, faith, and friendship.
 
What awaits us in the Stars Above?

I figured it was easier to use the Solar System as a reference than create entire new planets, The only thing that is different is Earth’s make up because it’s supposed to be like the Show’s Planet. Humans do NOT exist at all in this setting, Galileo is a fun reference really it doesn’t mean a human exists, It’s just a name for a City
Background Pony #DEF7
I’ve noticed that this setting is in our solar system with the astronomical bodies having the same names we gave them IRL, what’s the explanation for Europa having a city called Galileo? Do humans just straight-up not exist in this universe? If so, why are places named after famous humans? If they do exist, where are they? Are they perhaps extinct?
 
Btw I get that it’s just fiction but i am curious all the same.

@black amor
I can hardly understand what you are writing, It doesn’t seem coherent to me.
 
im just explaining the universe it takes place in the ideas been im my head for a year now but im refining it ok so just when peace was on the horizon Trixie was kidnaped. but anyway it dosent take place on the same planet as Equestria. But on a planet 1000 light years away and what causes the NLR and solar empire to send there starships that way is bright flashes.(Major starships exploding) but anyway my first comment is what if these 2 worlds would collide.

It frankly sounds silly, Like you threw everything into a blender and then presented it. Specially with all these Aliens, Clones and Changelings. Generally it sounds confusing and super weird i’m not a editor or anything but it definitely tons of work. Simpler is always better. I generally don’t like the idea that “A planet is dying of war” because war happens, We’ve had so many years of war in our history and we aren’t dying of it, Unless you trying to make it like Warhammer 40k or something.
 
well. let me put it to you this way there like nuking each other and building super weapons like tanks the size of new york city the thing is also the story is the changelings came from this planet. Queen chrysalis was the Changelings last leader(until she suggested moving off the planet and they wiped sent her off to Equestria) and the clones is vector and all the other empires their leaders wanted every pony in their empire to look like them. so they constructed robots at first then eventually cloned themselves. Their resources are being depleted they’ve had 5 zombie apocalypse. Also day by day an ancient evil is getting stronger and feeding off their loss and death and when they do destroy themselves It will destroy the remaining ponies and make itself the new ruler of this planet. but what happens is this is like an origin story of the mane six and what’s happening to them. Now about the war its a never ending war (like if ww2 went on till no one was left standing).Now the role of the solar empire and NLR astronaut is to make them see there’s more to life than just war.

but they idea is the planet is dying from war so there are some ponies that are moving of it (which is illegal)  
and trying to become better ponies in general so some clones will turn against them. but the changelings see it coming but they refuse to give up there home and the sand snakes(ponies with rattlesnake eyes, teeth, tail, and scaled skin) along with the scorpion ponies are blinded by their hate for each other to see the grim truth. Until 2 ponies from Equestria come and change that an NLR astronaut and a solar empire astronaut.

Alright i didn’t know that myself, After all when you post on this picture with a setting called “Stars Above” and a fanfic is called “What awaits in the stars above” which so happens to be the final tag line of the uploader’s description, You can understand why i might be confused.
 
sorry the description said whats beyond the stars so I answered like you asked me that.
black amor

its called (well I dont have a name for it)but its about these armies of clones fighting each other in a massive scale war on a planet called nararocka and its 1000 times bigger than Jupiter so ITS A HUGE WAR!  
but the factions are based off the mane six there are 9 empires total 4 3 and 3 are there alliance numbers the earth ponies are the apple fielders (there like an army of apple jacks that use highly flammable cider to fuel there war machine)they are alied with the derpy neese(an empire of derpies inspired from both Japanese and Chinese) and also the pinklights (pinkie pies that love blood shed and fight for the glory of battle and pantyhose). unicorns are the twilwteons (based off twilight sparkle they use a glowing blue stone to fuel there war machine but they speak a language that’s not understandable to any of the other empires except translators) trixie(vector corporation an army powerd by hate from vector losing his daughter trixie when the earth pony empire kidnaped them the use advance tech like all the others but they have the most advance outta of all of it.) rarity(or rarifri incorprated is a robot army that lives in the seas of the planet on an Atlantis like city. There soldiers are like cyborgs and brain in jar robots) and the changei(the changelings that at one time wanted to avoid war ) are allied with them. no pegasi will come soon.

@black amor  
Why ask when you just going to post it anyway?
 
@black amor  
Is this based off me and my BF’s universe? Or you just simply took the title? Regardless i’m going to respond like it is my setting, in my Star’s Above setting there are no aliens, cloning exists i believe but it’s very taboo and unethical my BF has the details on that one there’s no way that would happen specially so large. In the setting Changelings are not “Good” there are two sides, The Changeling Imperium which Queen Chrysalis rules for her own goals and the changelings that decided to turn themselves in, submitting to the Corporations, Griffon Federation or Equestrian Empire in return for Artificial Love (Which tastes like shit to changelings but it gives them nourishment and feeding off ponies is illegal) Even then changelings are not “Good” and generally treated with mistrust and suspicion. The Setting Inspiration comes from mostly Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star meaning aliens are not a big thing.
 
After mentioning that, Your idea for a Fanfic doesn’t sound good to me, and could use some major work.
black amor

what awaits in the stars above is what my fanfic is about armies of clones of an alien race of ponies. resembling trixie derpy and the mane six including the original changelings. but they might decide that Equestria is too week compared to their armies that can fill every inch of the planet 1000 times. but the changelings here are different there good the changelings you know are the ones they sent here as punishment for there crimes against there empire. but there described as ponies with tentacles on there hooves(all ponies here also have them) and they stand Bipedal they wonder if there are things alien to them out there too.
