About this title

Synopsis

This first of the four science fiction novels by Jim Cline centers around the adventures of building the first Anchored Tether Space Elevator, the first wheel-type Space Station in Low Earth Orbit, And the first Kinetic Energy Supported Transportation Structure to Geostationary Earth Orbit. It also includes the associated short stories and the technical background of the concepts in these stories.

About the Author

Creativity frustrated by a career as an engineering technician in electronics, found fulfillment by writing and presenting technical papers in the space transportation field; when those concepts were not enthusiastically embraced either, found fulfillment in living out the adventures of his technologies in the form of science fiction.
