Books like After the flare by Deji Bryce Olukotun

A massive solar flare tears electricity grids from the United States and triggers devastating cyberattacks that cripple global communication. With Europe, Asia, and the U.S. offline and satellites at risk of crashing to Earth, the planet’s sole hope rests on the Nigerian Space Program. Former NASA employee Kwesi Bracket, now working at the only operational space agency, leads a team on a daring rescue mission to the International Space Station. Facing a tight deadline, Bracket must protect the spaceport from Boko Haram militants, advanced biohacking technologies flooding Nigeria, and a nomadic group that has uncovered an ancient, powerful technology. Alongside a brilliant Indian scientist and an eccentric lunar geologist, he races to launch the mission before terrestrial and extraterrestrial threats threaten humanity’s last lifeline.
