Voyage
Voyage is a 1996 hard science fiction novel by British author Stephen Baxter. The book depicts a manned mission to Mars as it might have been in another timeline, one where John F. Kennedy survived the assassination attempt on him in 1963. Voyage won a Sidewise Award for Alternate History, and was nominated for the Arthur C. Clarke Award in 1997. It has since been made into a radio serial for BBC Radio 4.

Examples of voyage in a Sentence
Just as I shall select my ship when I am about to go on a voyage, or my house when I propose to take a residence, so I shall choose my death when I am about to depart from life.
Losque vous serez naviguez heureux dans l'océan bleu, pensant que la vie est tout l'amusement. précisément à ce moment-là encore, vous serez attirés par compétence mortelle de sirène. ne oubliez jamais que la sirène est la créature de la fey, qui impitoyablement voler votre coeur loin. ne jamais ose pas regarder dans ses beaux yeux, vous serez laissé seul avec vos soupirs tristes et pitoyables cris. dans le voyage de la vie, l'appel de la sirène est livré avec un prix à payer, pour le pauvre marin qui perd sa vie à cette belle créature du fey.
Like the winds of the sea are the winds of fate As we voyage along through life, Tis the set of the soul That decides its goal And not the calm or the strife.
He that embarks on the voyage of life will always wish to advance rather by the impulse of the wind than the strokes of the oar; and many foulder in their passage; while they lie waiting for the gale.
Profitez du Voyage de la Vie. Enjoy the Journey of Life.
