A free-floating world of surprise in three novellas: murder as a shortcut to romance sets the first tale in motion; the adventure in the second involves a large blimp that the expedition brings along for travel on Mars. The last story is a set-piece for lunar military planners, an exciting technical manual for battle strategists on the moon. These stories in their realism are the future of our space pioneers.
With a PhD from Rice University in Space Physics & Astronomy, Larry Jay Friesen worked at Johnson Space Center from 1976 through 1998, mostly for McDonnell-Douglas and Lockheed-Martin. He currently teaches Astronomy and Physics at the University of Houston - Clear Lake. He was elected as an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He brings a wealth of accurate detail to the highly probable reality of his stories.
