Dr. Alan Binder was the catalyst and brains behind the Lunar Prospector space mission to the Moon. He is noted as the discoverer of water at the lunar poles.
In this, his first science fiction tale, he tells a bold story of humanity’s first permanent base on the lunar surface with the scientific and technical accuracy of a man who obviously understands his stock in trade, that of building and operating a cislunar transportation system and moon base. A base built by a government bureacracy that ignores advice from experts outside its ranks, leading to disastrous and deadly consequences.
Apogee Science Faction are forward looking books, written by people who understand the enormous potential of our species moving off world. It is fitting that this gripping tale is the first in this new series.
